Multilocus Sequence Typing of Clostridium difficile [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010
ABSTRACT A robust high-throughput multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Clostridium difficile was developed and validated using a diverse collection of 50 reference isolates representing 45 different PCR ribotypes and 102 isolates from recent clinical samples.

Human streptococcus agalactiae strains in aquatic mammals and fish [PDF]

, 2013
<p>Background: In humans, Streptococcus agalactiae or group B streptococcus (GBS) is a frequent coloniser of the rectovaginal tract, a major cause of neonatal infectious disease and an emerging cause of disease in non-pregnant adults.

Expanded Multilocus Sequence Typing for Burkholderia Species [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2009
ABSTRACT PCR primers targeting loci in the current Burkholderia cepacia complex multilocus sequence typing scheme were redesigned to (i) more reliably amplify these loci from B . cepacia complex species, (ii) amplify these same loci from additional

Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Stable, Comparative Analyses of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli Human Disease Isolates

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
Human campylobacteriosis, caused by Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli, remains a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in many countries, but the epidemiology of campylobacteriosis outbreaks remains poorly defined, largely due to limitations in the ...

Diverse sequence types of Klebsiella pneumoniae contribute to the dissemination of bla NDM-1 in India, Sweden, and the United Kingdom [PDF]

, 2012
Clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing NDM-1 carbapenemase from India (n = 22), the United Kingdom (n = 13), and Sweden (n = 4) were subjected to multilocus sequence typing (MLST), automated repetitive sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Enterococcus faecium [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2002
ABSTRACT A multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme has been developed for Enterococcus faecium . Internal fragments from seven housekeeping genes of 123 epidemiologically unlinked isolates from humans and livestock and 16 human-derived isolates from several outbreaks in the United States, the United ...

A Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Enterococcus faecalis

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2019
Among enterococci, Enterococcus faecalis occurs ubiquitously, with the highest incidence of human and animal infections. The high genetic plasticity of E. faecalis complicates both molecular investigations and phylogenetic analyses.
