Subtyping Brazilian Yersinia pestis strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
We subtyped Brazilian Yersinia pestis strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). This was done with 22 Brazilian Y. pestis strains: 17 from an outbreak and 5 from endemic routine surveillance. The strains were divided into 2 groups (I and II), 8 subgroups (A-H) and 19 PFGE profiles or pulsotypes. PFGE did not separate outbreak from non-outbreak strains, as identical pulsotype patterns ...

ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-6988-0 Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli are frequent worldwide causes of food-borne gastroenteritis. Poultry is regarded as the most important infection source. In temperate countries, a marked seasonal variation of human campylobacteri...
متن کاملSubtyping of Salmonella enterica isolated from humans and food animals using Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis
Salmonella infections are the second leading cause of zoonotic bacterial foodborne illness. Main source of infection in human is contaminated food products. The aim of this study was sub typing isolates of Salmonella entericaobtained during our previous study byPulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) technique. All 46 Salmonella isolates were serotyped and then subjected to PFGE. Total isolates...
متن کاملMolecular 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 کاملPulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
DNA molecules in an agarose matrix elongate and migrate toward the anode when exposed to an electric field. An agarose matrix represents a highly irregular network with pores of various dimensions, large open areas, and regions with different densities. During electrophoresis, migration will be retarded by obstructions that prevent sieving by size and result in "end-on" migration as if through ...
