Overview of typing techniques as molecular epidemiology tools for bacterial characterization [PDF]

Cellular, Molecular and Biomedical Reports, 2021
The main purpose of microbial typing is to evaluate the relationships between microbial isolates. Microbial typing can use for identifying the source of infection by detecting a clonal link between the strains.

Choosing an appropriate bacterial typing technique for epidemiologic studies [PDF]

Epidemiologic Perspectives & Innovations, 2005
AbstractA wide variety of bacterial typing systems are currently in use that vary greatly with respect to the effort required, cost, reliability and ability to discriminate between bacterial strains. No one technique is optimal for all forms of investigation.

A live-cell super-resolution technique demonstrated by imaging germinosomes in wild-type bacterial spores [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractTime-lapse fluorescence imaging of live cells at super-resolution remains a challenge, especially when the photon budget is limited. Current super-resolution techniques require either the use of special exogenous probes, high illumination doses or multiple image acquisitions with post-processing or combinations of the aforementioned.
