MLVA as a tool for public health surveillance of human Salmonella Typhimurium: prospective study in Belgium and evaluation of MLVA loci stability. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Surveillance of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is generally considered to benefit from molecular techniques like multiple-locus variable-number of tandem repeats analysis (MLVA), which allow earlier detection and

Modified MLVA for Genotyping Queensland Invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae.

PLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundGlobally, over 800 000 children under five die each year from infectious diseases caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. To understand genetic relatedness between isolates, study transmission routes, assess the impact of human interventions e.g ...

Subtyping of STEC by MLVA in Argentina [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) causes serious human illness such as hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Argentina has the world's highest rate of this syndrome, which is the leading cause of acute renal failure among children. E. coli O157:H7 is the most common cause of HUS, but a substantial and growing proportion of this illness is caused

High throughput MLVA-16 typing for Brucella based on the microfluidics technology [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2011
Abstract Background Brucellosis, a zoonosis caused by the genus Brucella, has been eradicated in Northern Europe, Australia, the USA and Canada, but remains endemic in most areas of the world. The strain and biovar typing of Brucella field samples isolated in outbreaks is useful for tracing back source of infection ...

Evaluation and selection of tandem repeat loci for a Brucella MLVA typing assay [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2006
Abstract Background The classification of Brucella into species and biovars relies on phenotypic characteristics and sometimes raises difficulties in the interpretation of the results due to an absence of standardization of the typing reagents. In addition, the resolution of this biotyping is moderate and requires the

First Molecular Typing of Tick-Derived <i>Coxiella burnetii</i> From Wildlife in South Korea: Surveillance and Genetic Characterization. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Q fever, caused by Coxiella burnetii, is a widespread zoonosis characterized by environmental persistence and a broad host range. Wildlife and their associated ticks are increasingly recognized as crucial elements in the ecology of this pathogen; however, molecular data from these reservoirs in South Korea remain scarce.
