Journal ArticleDOI
Colony Multiplex PCR Assay for Identification and Differentiation of Campylobacter jejuni, C. coli, C. lari, C. upsaliensis, and C. fetus subsp. fetus
Gehua Wang,Clifford G. Clark,Tracy Taylor,Chad Pucknell,Connie Barton,Lawrence J. Price,David L. Woodward,Frank G. Rodgers +7 more
TL;DR: A multiplex PCR assay was used to simultaneously detect genes from the five major clinically relevant Campylobacter spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection in Escherichia coli of the Genes Encoding the Major Virulence Factors, the Genes Defining the O157:H7 Serotype, and Components of the Type 2 Shiga Toxin Family by Multiplex PCR
TL;DR: The proposed method is a simple, reliable, and rapid procedure that can detect the major virulence factors of E. coli while differentiating O157:H7 from non-O157 isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
An international outbreak of salmonellosis associated with raw almonds contaminated with a rare phage type of Salmonella enteritidis.
Isaacs S,Jeff Aramini,Bruce Ciebin,Jeff A. Farrar,Rafiq Ahmed,Dean Middleton,A. U. Chandran,Linda J. Harris,M. Howes,Chan Es,A. S. Pichette,K. Campbell,Amita Gupta,L. Y. Lior,M. Pearce,Clifford G. Clark,Frank G. Rodgers,Frances Jamieson,I. Brophy,Andrea Ellis +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, a case control study with 16 matched case-control pairs was conducted to test the hypothesis of an association between raw whole almond consumption and Salmonella Enteritidis (PT30) infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlations between Molecular Subtyping and Serotyping of Listeria monocytogenes
TL;DR: Of the 12 resultantEcoRI-PvuII combination types, only 4 contained multiple serotypes, demonstrating the potential of ribotyping for serotype prediction, and establishing relationships between Listeria monocytogenes genetic lineages, ribotypes, and serotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence typing confirms that Campylobacter jejuni strains associated with Guillain-Barré and Miller-Fisher syndromes are of diverse genetic lineage, serotype, and flagella type.
Kate E. Dingle,N. van den Braak,Frances M. Colles,Lawrence J. Price,David L. Woodward,Frank G. Rodgers,Hubert P. Endtz,A. van Belkum,Martin C. J. Maiden +8 more
TL;DR: Guillain-Barré syndrome and Miller-Fisher syndrome are correlated with prior infection by Campylobacter jejuni in up to 40% of cases, and genetic lineages and flaA short variable region nucleotide sequences were present.
