متن کاملGenotyping primers for fully automated multilocus variable-number tandem repeat analysis of Escherichia coli O157:H7.
We recently developed a multilocus variable-number tandem repeat (TR) analysis (MLVA) assay for Escherichia coli O157:H7 (2). In this assay, we identified seven loci that, when used in combination, were able to identify E. coli O157:H7 outbreaks, discriminate among genetically diverse isolates, and discriminate among isolates that were found to be highly related by pulsed-field gel electrophore...
متن کاملMultilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis scheme for chlamydia felis genotyping: comparison with multilocus sequence typing.
Chlamydia felis is an important ocular pathogen in cats worldwide. A multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) system for the detection of tandem repeats across the whole genome of C. felis strain Fe/C-56 was developed. Nine selected genetic loci were tested by MLVA in 17 C. felis isolates, including the C. felis Baker vaccine strain, and 122 clinical samples from different geogr...
متن کاملMultilocus variable-number tandem repeat analysis distinguishes outbreak and sporadic Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates.
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a major cause of food-borne illness in the United States. Outbreak detection involves traditional epidemiological methods and routine molecular subtyping by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). PFGE is labor-intensive, and the results are difficult to analyze and not easily transferable between laboratories. Multilocus variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysi...
