Higher isolation of NDM-1 producing Acinetobacter baumannii from the sewage of the hospitals in Beijing. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Multidrug resistant microbes present in the environment are a potential public health risk. In this study, we investigate the presence of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) producing bacteria in the 99 water samples in Beijing City, including river ...

Genetic similarity of Burkholderia cenocepacia from cystic fibrosis patients

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2013
Burkholderia cenocepacia may cause serious infections in patients with cystic fibrosis, and this microorganism can be highly transmissible. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis is widely used to study the dynamics of strain spread in cystic fibrosis patients.

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of circular DNA [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 1989
Mobility of supercoiled (form I) and nicked circular (form II) plasmid DNAs was determined on two major forms of pulsed-field electrophoresis, CHEF and OFAGE. Plasmids with molecular lengths ranging from 2.30 to 17.8 kilobase pairs (kb) were used with Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosomes as standards.

The association of serotype and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis genotype in isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated in Israel

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2015
The relationship between Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates causing invasive infections in children admitted to a single center in central Israel was examined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and serotyping.

Pulsed field gel electrophoresis and genome size estimates

, 2015
Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is a quick and reliable procedure to resolve DNA molecules larger than 30 kb by applying an electric field that periodically changes direction. This technique can be used to estimate genome size of a microorganism,

Resolution of budding yeast chromosomes using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis [PDF]

, 2013
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is a technique that resolves chromosome-sized DNA molecules in an agarose gel. As well as DNA mapping and karyotyping applications, PFGE techniques are well adapted to follow DNA rearrangements over time in a ...

Decreased Levofloxacin Susceptibility in Haemophilus influenzae in Children, Hong Kong

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Among 563 strains of Haemophilus influenzae from young children in Hong Kong, 5 (0.9%) had decreased susceptibility to quinolones. The five strains had a Ser-84-Lys or Asp-88-Asn substitution in GyrA.
