PFGE: Importance in Food Quality
Recent Patents on Food, Nutrition & Agriculture, 2009 In late 19 century, great interest has arisen for food quality. This is referred as absence of pathogens in food (safety for consumers) and as nutritional quality of food (organoleptic characteristics). Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is, among the molecular techniques developed in the last years, one of the most reliable, discriminative and ...

Optimized Protocol for PFGE Analysis of Anginosus (milleri) Streptococci [PDF]
Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2015 Streptococcus anginosus (milleri) is a diverse group of gram positive bacteria. Molecular methods to establish relationship between strains are poorly developed. Therefore, main tool to study genetic variability is restriction fragment length polymorphism combined with pulsed field gel electrophoresis (RFLP-PFGE).

PFGE Protocols to Distinguish Subspecies of Lactococcus lactis
, 2015 Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), developed in the mid-1980s, rapidly became a "gold standard" method for analyzing bacterial chromosomes. Today, although outcompeted in resolution by alternative methods, such as optical mapping, and not applicable for high-throughput analyses, PFGE remains a valuable method for bacterial strain typing. Here, we

PFGE diversity within the methicillin-resistant
BMC Microbiology, 2010 Background Livestock has recently been identified as a new reservoir of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Most isolates belong to ST398 and are non-typeable with PFGE using SmaI, making it difficult to study transmission and outbreaks ...

Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of mcr-Positive Enterobacteriaceae in Retail Meat in Thailand Following the Colistin Ban. [PDF]
Microbiol ImmunolABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of mcr‐positive Enterobacteriaceae in retail meat in Thailand following the national ban on prophylactic colistin use in food producing animals. A total of 152 meat samples (103 chicken and 49 pork) were collected from supermarkets and open markets between July and September ...

Understanding the molecular epidemiology of the footrot pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus to support control and eradication programs [PDF]
, 2010 The Gram-negative anaerobe Dichelobacter nodosus is the primary etiologic agent of ovine footrot. Few studies of the genetic diversity and epidemiology of D. nodosus have been done, despite the economic cost and welfare implications of the disease.
