[China takes the lead in formulating the world's first international standard for pathogenic gene databases] September 2nd, reporters learned from the National Standards Committee today that the world's first international standard for pathogenic gene databases, led by China, has been formally established recently. It will establish a unified "standard" for the construction of global pathogenic microorganism genome databases. The pathogenic microorganism genome reference database is equivalent to a genetic reference dictionary. By comparing the genetic information in the patient sample with the entries in this dictionary, you can identify which virus or bacteria it is, and doctors can treat it accordingly. This time, the international standard led by China is to compile this "pathogen gene dictionary" for the world. After the standard is implemented, the unified database can accurately identify difficult infection cases and greatly reduce the probability of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. At the same time, it can help countries quickly identify the source of the epidemic, track the transmission path, and provide standardized and reliable technical support for epidemic prevention and control.
