Macrorestriction analysis of clinical and environmental isolates of Sporothrix schenckii.
Sporothrix schenckii causes sporotrichosis, a disease that most commonly presents as a subacute or chronic skin infection. An unusually high incidence of clinical cases of sporotrichosis occurred in the southwest of Western Australia over the last 5 years. Anecdotal accounts from patients implicated contact with hay prior to infection. Isolates of S. schenckii from hay and clinical cases were i...
متن کاملA study on the genetic analysis of clinical isolates and vaccine strains of Bordetella pertussis by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE)
Considering the circulation of Bordetella pertussis clinical strains among populations with high vaccination coverage, it is necessary to have a proper understanding of this bacterium causing whooping cough. Various techniques, which are available for studying B. pertussis, can facilitate a proper comparison between different populations. We genotypically analyzed a collection of two vaccine st...
متن کاملApplication and Validation of PFGE for Serovar Identification of Leptospira Clinical Isolates
Serovar identification of clinical isolates of Leptospira is generally not performed on a routine basis, yet the identity of an infecting serovar is valuable from both epidemiologic and public health standpoints. Only a small number of reference laboratories worldwide have the capability to perform the cross agglutinin absorption test (CAAT), the reference method for serovar identification. Pul...
متن کاملPhenotyping and genotyping of Sporothrix schenckii isolates according to geographic origin and clinical form of Sporotrichosis.
Sporothrix schenckii isolates of fixed and lymphocutaneous clinical forms from Mexico (MX), Guatemala (GT), and Colombia (CO) as well as environmental isolates from MX were studied by analyzing their phenotypic characteristics (conidial length, thermotolerance by percent growth inhibition [GI] at 35 and 37 degrees C, median lethal dose [LD(50)]) and genotypic characteristics (by random amplifie...
متن کاملDiversity of swine Bordetella bronchiseptica isolates evaluated by RAPD analysis and PFGE
The degree of genetic diversity in 45 Bordetella (B.) bronchiseptica strains comprised of a vaccine strain (N = 1), reference strains (N = 3) and field isolates (N = 41) was evaluated using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Three candidate primers were selected for RAPD analysis after screening 20 random decamer oligonucleotides ...
