Molecular characterization of circulating Salmonella Typhi strains in an urban informal settlement in Kenya.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
A high burden of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) bacteremia has been reported from urban informal settlements in sub-Saharan Africa, yet little is known about the introduction of these strains to the region. Understanding

Molecular epidemiology in current times

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 22, Issue 12, Page 4909-4918, December 2020., 2020
Summary Motivated to find options for prevention or intervention, molecular epidemiology aims to identify the host and microbial factors that determine the transmission, manifestation and progression of infectious disease. The genotyping of cultivatable bacterial strains is performed by either anonymous fingerprinting techniques or sequence‐based ...

Core-genome multilocus sequence typing and core-SNP analysis of Clostridium neonatale strains isolated in different spatio-temporal settings

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Clostridium neonatale was described as a new species within the Clostridium genus cluster I sensu stricto. It was recovered from the gut microbiota of infants and has been associated with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a severe gastrointestinal disease

Human Campylobacteriosis Cases Traceable to Chicken Meat—Evidence for Disseminated Outbreaks in Finland

Pathogens, 2020
Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is the most common cause of human bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. Food-borne campylobacteriosis is thought to be commonly caused by the handling and consumption of undercooked chicken meat, but the epidemiology of

Table_3_Evaluation of whole and core genome multilocus sequence typing allele schemes for Salmonella enterica outbreak detection in a national surveillance network, PulseNet USA.XLSX

, 2023
Salmonella enterica is a leading cause of bacterial foodborne and zoonotic illnesses in the United States. For this study, we applied four different whole genome sequencing (WGS)-based subtyping methods: high quality single-nucleotide polymorphism (hqSNP)
