Whole Genome Sequencing for Tracing Geographical Origin of Imported Cases of Human Brucellosis in Sweden

Microorganisms, 2019
Human infections with Brucella melitensis are occasionally reported in Sweden, despite the fact that the national flocks of sheep and goats are officially free from brucellosis. The aim of our study was to analyze 103 isolates of B.

MLVA typing of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae bacterins and field strains

Veterinary Record Open, 2015
Because of the lack of information about both the genetic characteristics of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae commercial vaccines and their relationship with field strains, the authors attempted to identify genetic subtypes of some M hyopneumoniae bacterins ...

Spatial distribution of Legionella pneumophila MLVA-genotypes in a drinking water system [PDF]

Water Research, 2015
Bacteria of the genus Legionella cause water-based infections, resulting in severe pneumonia. To improve our knowledge about Legionella spp. ecology, its prevalence and its relationships with environmental factors were studied. Seasonal samples were taken from both water and biofilm at seven sampling points of a small drinking water distribution system

MLVA and com1 genotyping of Coxiella burnetii in farmed ruminants in Great Britain

Veterinary Microbiology, 2023
Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of the zoonotic disease Q fever, has been shown to be endemic in Great Britain, but information on the prevailing genomic lineages or Genomic Groups (GGs) of Coxiella burnetii is limited. The aim of this study was to genotype C.

Diversity of Variable Number Tandem Repeat Loci in Shigella Species Isolated From Pediatric Patients [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular and Cellular Medicine, 2015
Multilocus variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) is a new typing method with several advantages compared to other methods. Dissemination of Shigella is highly significant in developing countries.

High resolution typing of Chlamydophila psittaci by multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) [PDF]

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2008
A multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) system for detection of tandem repeats across the whole genome of Chlamydophila psittaci has been developed. Twenty selected genetic loci were initially tested on 9 avian reference strains including representatives of all major serotypes (A to F).

Improvement of the MLVA typing scheme for Burkholderia mallei strains

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии
Introduction. The registration of sporadic cases of glanders in horses in Russia, caused by Burkholderia mallei, highlights the importance of developing genotyping algorithms for this pathogen. The MLVA method (multilocus-variable tandem repeat analysis),

Prevalence and genetic distribution of Legionella spp. in public bath facilities in Kobe City, Japan

Journal of Water and Health, 2023
Legionella is an important waterborne pathogen that causes legionellosis. Public baths are considered the primary cause of legionellosis infection in Japan. We investigated the prevalence and genetic distribution of 338 Legionella spp.

Integrated Molecular Detection and Epidemiological Investigation of Brucella abortus in Dairy Cattle and Farm Workers During a Brucellosis Outbreak

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
A brucellosis outbreak was investigated in dairy cattle and farm workers. Among 83 cattle and 11 workers, Brucella abortus was molecularly confirmed using IS711‐PCR and sequencing. Infection was detected in 48% of cattle and 45% of workers, highlighting significant zoonotic and occupational risks.
