Journal ArticleDOI
Viability and DNA Maintenance in Nonculturable Spiral Campylobacter jejuni Cells after Long-Term Exposure to Low Temperatures
TL;DR: Survival of Campylobacter jejuni at 4 and 20°C was investigated by using cellular integrity, respiratory activity, two-dimensional (2D) protein profile, and intact DNA content as indicators of potential viability of nonculturable cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biotic and abiotic factors affecting plasmid transfer in Escherichia coli strains.
TL;DR: This article corrects the article on p. 393 in vol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of cdtA, cdtB, and cdtC genes in Campylobacter jejuni by multiplex PCR
Irati Martinez,Estibaliz Mateo,Estibaliz Churruca,Cecilia Girbau,Rodrigo Alonso,Aurora Fernández-Astorga +5 more
TL;DR: A multiplex PCR was developed for simultaneous detection of the cytolethal distending toxin (cdt) genes of Campylobacter jejuni and it was found to be rapid and specific.
Journal ArticleDOI
MAMA-PCR assay for the detection of point mutations associated with high-level erythromycin resistance in Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli strains
Rodrigo Alonso,Estibaliz Mateo,Estibaliz Churruca,Irati Martinez,Cecilia Girbau,Aurora Fernández-Astorga +5 more
TL;DR: All high-level erythromycin-resistant strains examined by DNA sequencing carried the transition mutation A 2075 G, whereas no isolate carried the A 2074 C mutation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of a PCR assay for the detection and identification of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in retail poultry products
TL;DR: This PCR method proved to be useful as a routine diagnostic test for Campylobacter detection and confirmation of C. jejuni and C. coli in naturally contaminated poultry samples.
