چکیده

Pulsed-field gel electrophoretic (PFGE) analysis of Helicobacter pylori isolates is not commonly employed because of the inability to compare the typing with other typing systems. We adapted the PFGE analysis for H. pylori by using EcoRI and slightly modified our laboratory methods to improve the typing of isolates (typeability was 97%).

Analysis of Genomic Diversity among Helicobacter pylori Strains Isolated from Iranian Children by Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis

OBJECTIVE Presence of genomic diversity among Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) strains have been suggested by numerous investigators. Little is known about diversity of H. pylori strains isolated from Iranian children and their association with virulence of the strains. Our purpose was to assess the degree of genomic diversity among H. pylori strains isolated from Iranian-children, on the basis ...

Direct evidence by DNA fingerprinting that endoscopic cross-infection of Helicobacter pylori is a cause of postendoscopic acute gastritis.

The DNA fingerprinting of Helicobacter pylori strains in two cases of acute gastritis that occurred after endoscopy was examined. H. pylori was isolated from the stomachs of two patients with acute gastritis and from the stomachs of the patients in whom the same gastrofiberscope had previously been used. The genomic DNA digested with HaeIII was subjected to pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The...

Molecular Typing of Acinetobacter Baumannii Clinical Strains in Tehran by Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis

Background & Objective : Currently, Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen insofar as its hospital outbreaks have been described from various geographical areas. Since the discrimination of strains within a species is important for delineating nosocomial outbreaks, this study was conducted with the aim of genotyping the A. baumannii clinical strains in Tehran via the pulsed...

Use of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to determine genomic diversity in strains of Helicobacter hepaticus from geographically distant locations.

In 1992 a helical microorganism associated with chronic active hepatitis and a high incidence of hepatocellular tumors was identified in the hepatic parenchyma of A/JCr mice. By using biochemical tests, phenotypic characterization, and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the organism was classified as a novel Helicobacter species and named Helicobacter hepaticus. Recent surveys completed in our la...

Detection of Helicobacter pylori in gastric mucosa of patients with gastroduodenal diseases by PCR-restriction analysis using the RNA polymerase gene (rpoB).

A novel PCR restriction analysis method using the RNA polymerase beta-subunit- coding gene (rpoB) was employed to both detect and identify Helicobacter pylori in biopsy specimens and culture isolates. The rpoB DNAs (458 bp) were specifically amplified by PCR with the Helicobacter-specific primers (HF and HR). Based on the determined rpoB sequences of the culture isolates, an H. pylori-specific ...
