Clonal relationships among bloodstream isolates of Escherichia coli.
The clonal relationships among 187 bloodstream isolates of Escherichia coli from 179 patients at Boston, Mass., Long Beach, Calif., and Nairobi, Kenya, were determined by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MLEE), analysis of polymorphisms associated with the ribosomal operon (ribotyping), and serotyping. MLEE based on 20 enzymes resolved 101 electrophoretic types (ETs), forming five clusters; r...
متن کاملClonal composition and community clustering of drug-susceptible and -resistant Escherichia coli isolates from bloodstream infections.
Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strains belonging to a single lineage frequently account for a large proportion of extraintestinal E. coli infections in many parts of the world. However, limited information exists on the community prevalence and clonal composition of drug-susceptible E. coli strains. Between July 2007 and September 2010, we analyzed all consecutively collected Gram-negativ...
متن کاملClonal Relatedness of Enterotoxigenic and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolates from Diverse Human, Foods and Calf Sources
Background: Foodborne infection caused by EnterotoxigenicEscherichia coli (ETEC) and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is one of the major health problems, particularly in the developing countries. Therefore, it is vital to identify the origin of food contamination to plan control strategies efficiently. Method: A tota...
متن کاملClonal relationships and extended virulence genotypes among Escherichia coli isolates from women with a first or recurrent episode of cystitis.
To identify bacterial predictors of recurrence and/or persistence in acute cystitis, extended virulence genotypes were compared with clonal background and epidemiologic status among 74 Escherichia coli urine isolates from women with first or recurrent episodes of urinary tract infection (UTI). Sequential isolates from patients with recurrent UTI were classified, using macrorestriction analysis,...
متن کاملClonal differentiation of uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates of serotype
Escherichia coli isolates of serotype 06: K5 are the most common causative agents of cystitis and pyelonephritis in adults. To answer the question, as to whether strains of this particular serotype represent one special clonal group, out of a collection of 34 serotype 06: K5 isolates [Zingler et al. ( 1990) Zentralbl. Bakteriol Mikrobiol Hyg [A] 274:372-381] 15 strains were selected andanalyzed...
