All reference data (about microorganisms, antibiotics, SIR 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, MS Excel, Apache Feather, Apache Parquet, SPSS, SAS, and Stata. We also provide tab-separated text 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.

microorganisms: Full Microbial Taxonomy

A data set with 52 151 rows and 22 columns, containing the following column names:
mo, fullname, status, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species, subspecies, rank, ref, source, lpsn, lpsn_parent, lpsn_renamed_to, gbif, gbif_parent, gbif_renamed_to, prevalence, and snomed.

This data set is in R available as microorganisms, after you load the AMR package.

It was last updated on 20 April 2023 13:20:41 UTC. Find more info about the structure of this data set here.

NOTE: The exported files for SAS, SPSS and Stata contain only the first 50 SNOMED codes per record, as their file size would otherwise exceed 100 MB; the file size limit of GitHub. Advice? Use R instead.

The tab-separated text file and Microsoft Excel workbook both contain all SNOMED codes as comma separated values.
