Multiplex PCRs for identification of Escherichia coli virulence genes.
PCRs were developed to detect 11 Escherichia coli virulence genes. Primers amplified the respective genes without cross-reaction with other genes. Specificity was maintained in multiplex reactions; excellent amplification of target genes was possible with a minimum of four multiplex reactions. These reactions successfully identified genes in E. coli from the feces of four dogs.
متن کاملMultiplex PCRs for identification of necrotoxigenic Escherichia coli.
Two multiplex PCRs were developed for the detection of necrotoxigenic Escherichia coli virulence genes. M1 contained the primers for the toxins and the aerobactin, and M2 contained the primers for the adhesins. They were validated by single PCRs performed with reference E. coli strains and by multiplex PCRs with necrotoxigenic E. coli strains isolated from different animal species.
متن کاملIdentification of Biofilm Encoding Genes (agg) in the Escherichia coli Isolates by Multiplex-PCR Method
Introduction: Biofilm is a collection of microbial cells that are irreversibly suppressed and mildly washed away. The aggR gene is located on the main plasmid (pAA), which codes for many actuator factors. The pathogen strains of EAEC have an aggR gene, the gene has been identified in six classes of pathogenic E. coli. Materials & Methods: In the present study, 60 stool samples from children ...
متن کاملOptimization of multiplex PCR conditions for rapid detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 virulence genes
The main source of E. coli 0157:H7 is cattle, but recent studies showed high percentage of outbreaks contributed by contaminated water. The occurrence of E. coli O157:H7 in environmental water samples poses a potential threat to human health. The aim of this study was to establish a protocol for the detection of the pathogen E. coli O157:H7 and E. coli virulence genes (eaeA, rfbE, hly, stx1, an...
متن کاملPrevalence of virulence genes in Escherichia coli isolates of patients with UTI
Abstract Background and Objective: Urinary tract infection refers to the presence of microbial pathogens in the urinary tract and is one of the most common infections in outpatient and hospitalized patients. A wide variety of extra-intestinal infections in humans and animals are caused by the extracellular strains of Escherichia coli (EXPEC). Materials and methods: A total of 50 E. coli iso...
