All reference data (about microorganisms, antibiotics, R/SI interpretation, EUCAST rules, etc.) in this `AMR` package are reliable, up-to-date and freely available. We continually export our data sets to formats for use in R, SPSS, SAS, Stata and Excel. We also supply tab separated files that are machine-readable and suitable for input in any software program, such as laboratory information systems.
On this page, we explain how to download them and how the structure of the data sets look like. If you are reading this page from within R, please [visit our website](https://msberends.github.io/AMR/articles/datasets.html), which is automatically updated with every code change.
This data set contains old, previously accepted taxonomic names. The data sources are the same as the `microorganisms` data set:
* [Catalogue of Life](http://www.catalogueoflife.org) (included version: `r AMR:::catalogue_of_life$year`)
* [List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature](https://lpsn.dsmz.de) (LPSN, included version: `r AMR:::catalogue_of_life$yearmonth_DSMZ`)
### Structure
`r structure_txt(microorganisms.old)`
**Note:** remember that the 'ref' columns contains the scientific reference to the old taxonomic entries, i.e. of column *fullname*. For the scientific reference of the new names, i.e. of column *fullname_new*, see the `microorganisms` data set.
This data set contains all EARS-Net and ATC codes gathered from WHO and WHONET, and all compound IDs from PubChem. It also contains all brand names (synonyms) as found on PubChem and Defined Daily Doses (DDDs) for oral and parenteral administration.
* [ATC/DDD index from WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology](https://www.whocc.no/atc_ddd_index/) (note: this may not be used for commercial purposes, but is frelly available from the WHO CC website for personal use)
* [PubChem by the US National Library of Medicine](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)

This data set contains interpretation rules for MIC values and disk diffusion diameters. Included guidelines are CLSI (`r min(as.integer(gsub("[^0-9]", "", subset(rsi_translation, guideline %like% "CLSI")$guideline)))`-`r max(as.integer(gsub("[^0-9]", "", subset(rsi_translation, guideline %like% "CLSI")$guideline)))`) and EUCAST (`r min(as.integer(gsub("[^0-9]", "", subset(rsi_translation, guideline %like% "EUCAST")$guideline)))`-`r max(as.integer(gsub("[^0-9]", "", subset(rsi_translation, guideline %like% "EUCAST")$guideline)))`).
