Multilocus Sequence Typing of the Clinical Isolates of Salmonella Enterica Serovar Typhimurium in Tehran Hospitals

multilocus 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...

Multilocus sequence typing lacks the discriminatory ability of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis for typing Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.

Nontyphoidal salmonellae are among the leading causes of food-borne disease in the United States. Because of the importance of Salmonella enterica in food-borne disease, numerous typing methodologies have been developed. Among the several molecular typing methods, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is currently considered the "gold standard" technique in typing Salmonella. The aim of this ...

Molecular typing and evolution of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium

IS200 and multilocus sequence typing for the identification of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi strains from Indonesia.

In this work, IS200 and multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) were used to analyze 19 strains previously serotyped as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and isolated in Indonesia (16 strains), Mexico (2 strains), and Switzerland (1 strain). Most of the strains showed the most common Typhi sequence types, ST1 and ST2, and a new Typhi genotype (ST1856) was described. However, one isolate from Mexico ...

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...
