MLVA typing of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae bacterins and field strains
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 ...

MLVA genotyping of Chinese human Brucella melitensisbiovar 1, 2 and 3 isolates [PDF]
Abstract Background Since 1950, Brucella melitensis has been the predominant strain associated with human brucellosis in China. In this study we investigated the genotypic characteristics of B. melitensis isolates from China using a multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) and evaluated the utility

Improvement of the MLVA typing scheme for Burkholderia mallei strains
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),

Population structure of Bartonella henselae in Algerian urban stray cats. [PDF]
Whole blood samples from 211 stray cats from Algiers, Algeria, were cultured to detect the presence of Bartonella species and to evaluate the genetic diversity of B. henselae strains by multiple locus VNTR analysis (MLVA).

How do hospital professionals involved in a randomised controlled trial perceive the value of genotyping vs. PCR-ribotyping for control of hospital acquired C. difficile infections? [PDF]
Background: Despite scientific advances in typing of C. difficile strains very little is known about how hospital staff use typing results during periods of increased incidence (PIIs). This qualitative study, undertaken alongside a randomised controlled

Use of multiple-locus variable-number of tandem repeats analysis (MLVA) to investigate genetic diversity of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium isolates from human, food, and veterinary sources [PDF]
Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhimurium is the most common zoonotic pathogen in Bulgaria. To allow efficient outbreak investigations and surveillance in the food chain, accurate and discriminatory methods for typing are needed.
