The International Pseudomonas Consortium Database

Linking metadata, genomics and human health

 

IPCD is a repository of thousands of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from the environment (soil and water), plants, animals and human infections, with a strong emphasis on Cystic Fibrosis. It was created for metadata analyses linking bacterial phenotype, genotype and clinical data, with a clear focus on the development of prognostic approaches to treating Cystic Fibrosis infections.

 

IPCD currently contains 2837 isolates. Draft genomes have been produced for 2837 of them.

The content of IPCD can be accessed here
