openPFGE: An open source and low cost pulsed-field gel electrophoresis equipment [PDF]
DNA electrophoresis is a fundamental technique in molecular biology that allows the separation of DNA molecules up to ~50 Kbp. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis [PFGE] is a variation of the conventional DNA electrophoresis technique that allows the ...

Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis of Group A Streptococci [PDF]
Here we describe the protocols to perform PFGE analysis of chromosomal DNA from the bacterial species Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus, GAS) after digestion with the restriction enzyme SmaI. Large parts of the procedures are suitable for application to DNA digested with other restriction enzymes as well.

Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis Infection in Waterfowl: First Confirmation in Animals
We report the first description, confirmed by bacteriologic and molecular (polymerase chain reaction and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis) analysis, of an infection in animals caused by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, affecting waterfowl.

Pulsed-field profile diversities of Salmonella Enteritidis, S. Infantis, and S. Corvallis in Japan
The diversity of pulsed-field profiles (PFPs) within non-typhoidal Salmonella subtypes influences epidemiological analyses of Salmonella outbreaks. Therefore, determining the PFP diversity of each Salmonella serovar is important when evaluating current ...

Molecular Investigation of Tularemia Outbreaks, Spain, 1997–2008
Tularemia outbreaks occurred in northwestern Spain in 1997–1998 and 2007–2008 and affected >1,000 persons. We assessed isolates involved in these outbreaks by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with 2 restriction enzymes and multilocus variable ...

Salmonella enterica Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis Clusters, Minnesota, USA, 2001–2007
We determined characteristics of Salmonella enterica pulsed-field gel electrophoresis clusters that predict their being solved (i.e., that result in identification of a confirmed outbreak). Clusters were investigated by the Minnesota Department of Health
