Investigating genetic diversity within Cryptosporidium parvum outbreaks using multi-locus variable number tandem repeat analysis [PDF]

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
Cryptosporidium parvum is a zoonotic protozoan parasite of human and veterinary public health concern that causes gastrointestinal disease. Animal contact is a major risk factor for C. parvum outbreaks which require thorough investigation through the use

Staphylococcus aureus strains associated with food poisoning outbreaks in France: comparison of different molecular typing methods, including MLVA

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Staphylococcal food poisoning outbreaks (SFPOs) are frequently reported in France. However, most of them remain unconfirmed, highlighting a need for a better characterization of isolated strains.

Spread of clonal genovar E Chlamydia trachomatis among men who have sex with men

PLoS ONE, 2021
In a previous study, we developed a Multi-Locus VNTRs Analysis (MLVA) typing system, called MLVA-5, for the discrimination of Chlamydia trachomatis genovar E strain.
