Analysis of PCR-amplified transfer DNA (tDNA) intergenic spacers was evaluated as a rapid method for identification to the species level of 18 species of Legionella known as human pathogens. Type strains (n = 19), reference strains (n = 16), environmental strains (n = 31), and clinical strains (n = 32) were tested. PCR products using outwardly directed tDNA consensus primers were separated on p...
The complex flagellar filaments of the LIO8 serogroup member Campylobacter coli VC167 are composed of two highly related subunit proteins encoded by the flaA and flaB genes which share 92% identity. Using oligonucleotide primers based on the known DNA sequence of both the flaA and flaB genes from C. coli VC167 in the polymerase chain reaction, we have shown conservation of both fla genes among ...
Current serotyping methods classify Pasteurella multocida into five capsular serogroups (serogroups A, B, D, E, and F) and 16 somatic serotypes (serotypes 1 to 16). In the present study, we have developed a multiplex PCR assay as a rapid alternative to the conventional capsular serotyping system. The serogroup-specific primers used in this assay were designed following identification, sequence ...
The DNA sequence of the O-antigen gene clusters of Escherichia coli serogroups O62, O68, O131, O140, O142, and O163 was determined, and primers based on the wzx (O-antigen flippase) and/or wzy (O-antigen polymerase) genes within the O-antigen gene clusters were designed and used in PCR assays to identify each serogroup. Specificity was tested with E. coli reference strains, field isolates belon...
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are important food-borne pathogens that have been linked to human illness. In the United States, STEC O157:H7 strains have been attributed to the majority of disease and outbreaks; however, the frequency of disease associated with STEC non-O157 strains have also increased and is often under recognized due to diagnostic limitations. In 2012, ...
Chlamydia trachomatis serovars are divided into three serogroups, namely serogroup B, serogroup I (Intermediate) and serogroup C, and subsequently into 19 different serovars. Worldwide, serogroup B is the most prevalent followed by serogroup I. Clear differences have been observed in the duration of infection and growth kinetics between serovars from different serogroups in murine and cell cult...
BACKGROUND Prior to the 1990s, P. multocida capsular serogroup A was the most prevalent in China, followed by serogroups B and D. Thirty years later, serogroup D became the most prevalent, followed by serogroups A and B. However, the P. multocida capsular serogroups currently circulating in China remain unclear. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to provide an update on P. multocida se...
We examined the relationship between serotype and cytotoxic necrotizing factor (CNF) production in 123 hemolytic strains of Escherichia coli isolated from both stools and extraintestinal infections. Of 76 strains producing both hemolysin (Hly) and CNF, 66 (87%) belonged to one of six serogroups (O2, O4, O6, O22, O75, and O83). In contrast, 47 E. coli strains producing Hly only belonged to 21 di...
PCR-based assays for the identification of Neisseria meningitidis serogroups 29E, X, and Z by detection of specific regions of the ctrA gene are described. The specificities of these assays were confirmed using serogroups A, B, C, 29E, H, W135, X, Y, and Z and nongroupable meningococcal isolates.
Escherichia coli serogroups O5, O15, O26, O45, O55, O76, O91, O103, O104, O111, O113, O118, O121, O123, O128, O145, O146, O157, O165, O172, and O177 are the O-antigen forms of the most clinically relevant Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) serotypes. In this study, three multiplex PCR assays able to specifically detect these 21 serogroups were developed and validated. For this purpose, the O-...
