Probe hybridization array typing: a binary typing method for Escherichia coli.
The ability to distinguish between Escherichia coli strains is critical for outbreak investigations. Binary typing, based on the presence or absence of genetic material, provides a high-throughput alternative to gel- and PCR-based typing techniques that generate complex banding patterns and lack uniform interpretation criteria. We developed, validated, and determined the discriminatory power of...
متن کاملArray-based binary analysis for bacterial typing.
An allele-specific oligonucleotide microarray was developed for rapid typing of pathogens based on analysis of genomic variations. Using a panel of Escherichia coli strains as a model system, selected loci were sequenced to uncover differences, such as single- or multiple-nucleotide polymorphisms as well as insertion/deletions (indels). While typical genomic profiling experiments employ specifi...
متن کاملMolecular risk assessment and epidemiological typing of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli by using a novel PCR binary typing system.
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a zoonotic pathogen that causes diarrheal disease in humans and is of public health concern because of its ability to cause outbreaks and severe disease such as hemorrhagic colitis or hemolytic-uremic syndrome. More than 400 serotypes of STEC have been implicated in outbreaks and sporadic human disease. The aim of this study was to develop a PCR ...
متن کاملPolymorphic amplified typing sequences provide a novel approach to Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain typing.
Escherichia coli O157:H7 (O157) strains are commonly typed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) following digestion of genomic DNA with the restriction enzyme XbaI. We have shown that O157 strains differ from each other by a series of discrete insertions or deletions, some of which contain recognition sites for XbaI, suggesting that these insertions and deletions are responsible for the d...
متن کاملBacteriophage typing as an epidemiological tool for urinary Escherichia coli.
Phage typing was used to identify strains of Escherichia coli isolated from urinary and nonurinary sources. When eight phages isolated in Pennsylvania were used to type 717 cultures from Missouri, 50.3% of 624 urinary isolates and 34.4% of 93 nonurinary isolates were typable. Strains from nonurinary sources were not found commonly in urine. When five additional phages isolated in Missouri were ...
