Molecular Methods for Bacterial Strain Typing
ABSTRACT Typing of bacteria is an important part of epidemiological studies on nosocomial infections. Bacterial identification methods have dramatically improved in recent years, which is mainly due to advancements in the field of molecular biotechnology. In many cases, molecular techniques have replaced phenotypic typing methods. Currently, a wide r...
متن کاملComparison of molecular typing methods for Candida albicans.
Four molecular approaches to determining the types of Candida albicans strains were compared. The strains used were those whose repeated DNA (ribosomal and mitochondrial) EcoRI restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) were determined by Stevens et al. (D. A. Stevens, F. C. Odds, and S. Scherer, Rev. Infect. Dis. 12:258-266, 1990). Scherer and Stevens (S. Scherer and D. A. Stevens, Proc....

متن کاملMOLECULAR TYPING OF Candida albicans ISOLATES FROM HOSPITALIZED PATIENTS
INTRODUCTION The majority of nosocomial fungal infections are caused by Candida spp. where C. albicans is the species most commonly identified. Molecular methods are important tools for assessing the origin of the yeasts isolated in hospitals. METHODS This is a study on the genetic profiles of 39 nosocomial clinical isolates of C. albicans using two typing methods: random amplified polymorphi...
