AMRFinderPlus is a computational tool developed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) designed to identify antibiotic resistance genes in microbial genomes and metagenomic data. The tool is an improvement over the original AMRFinder and incorporates a more extensive database of known antibiotic resistance markers and genomic features. AMRFinderPlus operates on genomic sequences, allowing researchers and clinicians to quickly assess the presence of antibiotic resistance genes within bacterial strains.
