Molecular Typing of Acinetobacter Baumannii Clinical Strains in Tehran by Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis
Background & Objective : Currently, Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen insofar as its hospital outbreaks have been described from various geographical areas. Since the discrimination of strains within a species is important for delineating nosocomial outbreaks, this study was conducted with the aim of genotyping the A. baumannii clinical strains in Tehran via the pulsed...
متن کاملImproved pulsed-field gel electrophoresis for typing vancomycin-resistant enterococci.
A rapid protocol for subtyping vancomycin-resistant enterococci by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis is reported. The procedure is simple and potentially cost-effective and allows reproducible subtyping of the strains in approximately 1 day.
متن کاملSubspecies typing of Vibrio parahaemolyticus by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is one of the most important food-borne pathogens in Taiwan, Japan, and other costal regions. We report on the development of a pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) method for the molecular typing of this pathogen. Genomic DNA was digested with SfiI, and the fragments were resolved on 1% agarose with a contour-clamped homogeneous electric field apparatus set at 190 V ...
متن کاملMolecular Typing of Vibrio cholerae O1 Isolates from Thailand by Pulsed-field Gel Electrophoresis
The aim of the present study was to genotypically characterize Vibrio cholerae strains isolated from cholera patients in various provinces of Thailand. Two hundred and forty V. cholerae O1 strains, isolated from patients with cholera during two outbreaks, i.e. March 1999-April 2000 and December 2001-February 2002, in Thailand, were genotypically characterized by NotI digestion and pulsed-field ...
متن کاملMolecular typing of Listeria monocytogenes isolated in Japan by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
A total of 40 strains of Listeria monocytogenes which have been demonstrated to be serovar 1/2a, 1/2b, and 4b were genotyped by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) after separate digestion with Apa I, Asc I, Sma I, and Sse 8387 I. Twenty-seven unrelated strains including four representative strains showed distinctly different genotypes according to their PFGE profiles. Then nine strains iso...
