Abstract

Bioinformatic software containerization, the process of packaging software that encapsulates an application together with all necessary dependencies to simplify installation and use, has improved the deployment and management of next-generation sequencing workflows in both clinical and public health laboratories. Containers have increased next-generation sequencing workflow reproducibility and broadened their usage across different laboratories. We highlight the value of the State Public Health Bioinformatics community’s containerized software repository during the COVID-19 pandemic.

软件容器化在公共卫生传染病基因组监测中的优势

生物信息学软件容器化是将应用程序与所有必要的依赖关系封装在一起以简化安装和使用的软件包装过程，它改进了临床和公共卫生实验室中下一代测序工作流程的部署和管理。容器提高了下一代测序工作流程的可重复性，并扩大了它们在不同实验室的使用范围。我们强调在COVID-19大流行期间，国家公共卫生生物信息学社区的容器化软件库的价值。

期刊介绍： Emerging Infectious Diseases is a monthly open access journal published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The primary goal of this peer-reviewed journal is to advance the global recognition of both new and reemerging infectious diseases, while also enhancing our understanding of the underlying factors that contribute to disease emergence, prevention, and elimination. Targeted towards professionals in the field of infectious diseases and related sciences, the journal encourages diverse contributions from experts in academic research, industry, clinical practice, public health, as well as specialists in economics, social sciences, and other relevant disciplines. By fostering a collaborative approach, Emerging Infectious Diseases aims to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue and address the multifaceted challenges posed by infectious diseases.
