Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) of Enterococcus faecalis clinical isolates in Ilam, Iran
Introduction: The Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is the one of the pathogenic bacteria that become famous and considerable in the recent years. Here we tried to do typing the E. faecalis isolates to provide advantageous information that can help us to understand epidemiological communication between the E. faecalis isolates. Materials and methods: One hundred E. faecalis were isolated fr...
متن کاملMultilocus Sequence Typing of the Clinical Isolates of Salmonella Enterica Serovar Typhimurium in Tehran Hospitals
Background: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is one of the most important serovars of Salmonella enterica and is associated with human salmonellosis worldwide. Many epidemiological studies have focused on the characteristics of Salmonella Typhimurium in many countries as well as in Asia. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic characteristics of Salmonella Typhimurium using m...
متن کاملMolecular typing of selected Enterococcus faecalis isolates: pilot study using multilocus sequence typing and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
The present study compared the recently developed multilocus sequence typing (MLST) approach with a well-established molecular typing technique, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), for subspecies differentiation of Enterococcus faecalis isolates. We sequenced intragenic regions of three E. faecalis antigen-encoding genes (ace, encoding a collagen and laminin adhesin; efaA, encoding an endo...
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing scheme for Enterococcus faecium.
A multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme has been developed for Enterococcus faecium. Internal fragments from seven housekeeping genes of 123 epidemiologically unlinked isolates from humans and livestock and 16 human-derived isolates from several outbreaks in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and The Netherlands were analyzed. A total of 62 sequence types were detected in vanc...
متن کاملHigh Genetic Diversity of Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis Clinical Isolates by Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis and Multilocus Sequence Typing from a Hospital in Malaysia
Little is known on the genetic relatedness and potential dissemination of particular enterococcal clones in Malaysia. We studied the antibiotic susceptibility profiles of Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis and subjected them to pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). E. faecium and E. faecalis displayed 27 and 30 pulsotypes, respectively, and 1...
