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.

Epidemiological Typing Using WGS

, 2021
Typing methods are continuously developing and improving. The methods aim to discriminate different strains beyond the species identification level. The first methods used to detect strain-specific differences were based on phenotypic characteristics ...

Assessing genetic heterogeneity within bacterial species isolated from gastrointestinal and environmental samples: how many isolates does it take? [PDF]

, 2008
Strain typing of bacterial isolates is increasingly used to identify sources of infection or product contamination and to elucidate routes of transmission of pathogens or spoilage organisms. Usually, the number of bacterial isolates belonging to the same

Genealogical typing of Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]

, 2009
Despite the increasing popularity of multilocus sequence typing (MLST), the most appropriate method for characterizing bacterial variation and facilitating epidemiological investigations remains a matter of debate.

Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for lineage assignment and high resolution diversity studies in Trypanosoma cruzi. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a powerful and highly discriminatory method for analysing pathogen population structure and epidemiology. Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan agent of American trypanosomiasis (Chagas disease), has remarkable

Genetic Relationships among Reptilian and Mammalian Campylobacter fetus Strains Determined by Multilocus Sequence Typing [PDF]

, 2010
Reptile Campylobacter fetus isolates and closely related strains causing human disease were characterized by multilocus sequence typing. They shared similar to 90% nucleotide sequence identity with classical mammalian C.
