Evaluation and selection of tandem repeat loci for Streptococcus pneumoniae MLVA strain typing [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2005
Abstract Background Precise identification of bacterial pathogens at the strain level is essential for epidemiological purposes. In Streptococcus pneumoniae, the existence of 90 different serotypes makes the typing particularly difficult and requires the use of highly informative tools.

Population structure of Bartonella henselae in Algerian urban stray cats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
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).

The spread of Mycoplasma pneumoniae is polyclonal in both an endemic setting in France and in an epidemic setting in Israel. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections occur both endemically and epidemically, and macrolide resistance has been spreading for 10 years worldwide. A substantial increased incidence of M. pneumoniae infections has been reported in several countries since 2010.

Beyond Serology: A Meta‐Analysis of Advancements in Molecular Detection of Brucella spp. in Seronegative Animals and Biological Samples

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
Molecular diagnostics, such as PCR and biosensor‐based techniques, offer high sensitivity in detecting Brucella spp. in seronegative animals, overcoming the limitations of traditional serological methods. The pooled detection rate of 35.08% suggests a substantial number of hidden carriers.

Multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis of Streptococcus pneumoniae and comparison with multiple loci sequence typing

BMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Streptococcus pneumoniae infections remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The diversity of pneumococci was first evidenced by serotyping of their capsular polysaccharides, responsible of virulence, resolving into more than

Control of Photovoltaic‐Based Shunt Active Power Filter System Based on Optimal Operating Point Tracking of PV System for Harmonic Mitigation, Load Supply and Grid Current Injection

IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
The proposed control strategy combines a search algorithm to find the optimal operating point for the photovoltaic system and a harmonic identification technique. The OOPT algorithm regulates the operating point to achieve an optimal trade‐off between photovoltaic power production and the desired functionalities.

Genetic Comparison of Brucella canis Isolates by the MLVA Assay in South Korea

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2011
The multiple-locus VNTR analysis (MLVA) assay is a method frequently employed as a molecular epidemiological tool for Brucella genetic fingerprinting. The purpose of this study was to assess the genotyping of 77 B. canis isolates from 14 different dog breeding farms in Korea by the MLVA assay and to compare the epidemiological relationships between the

Molecular characterization of Coxiella burnetii isolates by infrequent restriction site-PCR and MLVA typing [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2006
AbstractBackgroundCoxiella burnetii, the causative agent of Q fever, has a wide host range. Few epidemiological tools are available, and they are often expensive or not easily standardized across laboratories. In this work,C. burnetiiisolates from livestock and ticks were typed using infrequent restriction site-PCR (IRS-PCR) and multiple loci variable ...
