Expanded Multilocus Sequence Typing for Burkholderia Species [PDF]
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

Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
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 ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing System for Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]
ABSTRACT The gram-negative bacterium Campylobacter jejuni has extensive reservoirs in livestock and the environment and is a frequent cause of gastroenteritis in humans. To date, the lack of (i) methods suitable for population genetic analysis and (ii) a universally accepted nomenclature has hindered ...
