There are 18 ready-to-eat food samples (8 ready-to-eat meat, 7 ready-to-eat vegetables and 3 ready-to-eat fruit) and 6 human faecal samples. The samples were sequenced on the Illumina, NovaSeq PE150.. The metagenomic data of ready-to-eat foods and human fecal samples

Ready-to-eat (RTE) foods have been considered to be an important reservoir of AR bacteria, which constitutes a direct threat to human health, but this remains largely unexplored. In this study, we analyse the comprehensive profiles of antibiotic resistome by metagenomic approach in ready-to-eat foods and human faeces, which was never reported before. There are 18 ready-to-eat food samples (8 ready-to-eat meat, 7 ready-to-eat vegetables and 3 ready-to-eat fruit) and 6 human faecal samples. The samples were sequenced on the Illumina, NovaSeq PE150.

即食食品（Ready-to-eat, RTE）被视为抗生素耐药菌（antibiotic-resistant bacteria, ARB）的重要储存库，对人类健康构成直接威胁，但相关研究仍较为匮乏。本研究采用宏基因组学方法，对即食食品与人类粪便中的抗生素耐药组（antibiotic resistome）开展全面解析，此前尚无同类报道。本研究共纳入18份即食食品样本（含即食肉类8份、即食蔬菜7份、即食水果3份）以及6份人类粪便样本。所有样本均通过Illumina NovaSeq PE150平台完成测序。
