‘Next-Generation’ surveillance: an epidemiologists’ perspective on the use of molecular information in food safety and animal health decision-making [PDF]
Advances in the availability and affordability of molecular and genomic data are transforming human health care. Surveillance aimed at supporting and improving food safety and animal health is likely to undergo a similar transformation.

Molecular Typing of Streptococcus pyogenes.
Streptococcus pyogenesは,ヒトに咽頭炎等の風邪様症状を起こすほか,皮膚化膿症,産辱熱,敗血症,さらには非化膿性の続発症としてリウマチ熱や急性糸球体腎炎など,さまざまな病態を引き起こすことが知られている。わが国では,小児の疾患として代表的な猩紅熱は1970年頃から減少し,これに代わるかのように1990年代初め頃より劇症型レンサ球菌感染症(TSLS)が出現するなど本菌感染症の病態が変化しているかにみえるが,いわゆる溶連菌感染症の患者数は減少していない。欧米においても,TSLSを含め侵襲性の重篤な症状を呈する本菌感染症が1980年半ば頃より増加し,分離菌株のサブタイピングがそれ以外の症状との比較のうえで行われている。本稿では,血清型の周期的な流行パターンや薬剤耐性の経年変化を含め,S.

Novel SLCO2A1 mutations cause gender-differentiated pachydermoperiostosis
Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO) is a rare familial disorder with reduced penetrance for females. The genetic mutations associated with PHO have been identified in HPGD and SLCO2A1, which involved in prostaglandin E2 metabolism.

Overview of typing techniques as molecular epidemiology tools for bacterial characterization [PDF]
The main purpose of microbial typing is to evaluate the relationships between microbial isolates. Microbial typing can use for identifying the source of infection by detecting a clonal link between the strains.
