Powered by reference microbial databases

From DNA sequence to strain risk assessment

Identify unknown microbial sequences against curated reference databases and evaluate whether the matching strain could become a public-health, agricultural or industrial threat — all in one place.

Our objectives

What this platform does

Three tightly integrated capabilities, built on top of curated microbial reference data.

Identify
Align query sequences against MIRRI, CBS, UNITE, Fusarium, Pasteur and other reference databases to find the closest known taxon.
Assess risk
Cross-reference matched species with strain metadata — growth at 37 °C, pathogenicity codes, risk group — to flag potential threats.
Explore data
Browse aggregated statistics on the underlying strain collection: temperatures, substrates, geographic origins and pathogenicity.
Why it matters

Sequence identity is only half the story

Thermotolerance signals emerging pathogens

Environmental fungi and bacteria that grow at or above 37 °C can potentially colonize humans and animals. Combining sequence identity with thermotolerance data highlights strains that deserve attention.

Geography and substrate context

Where a strain was isolated — soil, food, clinical sample, insect gut — and its geographic origin are essential pieces of the risk puzzle. Every hit is enriched with this context.

Global coverage

Where the reference strains come from

Every MIRRI strain mapped to its country of isolation, with a searchable list of the species found in each location and a biohazard badge on known pathogens.
