High-throughput multilocus sequence typing: bringing molecular typing to the next level. [PDF]
Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a widely used system for typing microorganisms by sequence analysis of housekeeping genes. The main advantage of MLST in comparison to other typing techniques is the unambiguity and transferability of sequence data ...

Limitations of Ribotyping as Genotyping Method for Corynebacterium ulcerans
We conducted molecular typing of a Corynebacterium ulcerans isolate from a woman who died in Japan in 2016. Genomic DNA modification might have affected the isolate’s ribotyping profile.

Extended Sequence Typing of Campylobacter spp., United Kingdom
Supplementing Campylobacter spp. multilocus sequence typing with nucleotide sequence typing of 3 antigen genes increased the discriminatory index achieved from 0.975 to 0.992 among 620 clinical isolates from Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

Multilocus sequence typing of a global collection of pasteurella multocida isolates from cattle and other host species demonstrates niche association [PDF]
Background- Pasteurella multocida causes disease in many host species throughout the world. In bovids, it contributes to bovine respiratory disease (BRD) and causes haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS).

Multilocus sequence typing of Cronobacter spp. from powdered infant formula and milk powder production factories [PDF]
This study applied the Cronobacter spp. multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme to three strain collections, then known as Enterobacter sakazakii, which had been isolated between 1988 and 2009 from 14 countries. The results revealed the predominance (85%
