Typing of bacteria is important for monitoring newly emerging pathogens and for examining
local outbreaks. We evaluated the randomly amplified polymorphic DNA technique in …

Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method became widely applied for sensitive,
efficient and fast distinguishing of different isolates of a given species, if pure culture is …

Objective To perform quality assessment of standardized random amplified polymorphic
DNA (RAPD) analysis for epidemiologic typing of Klebsiella pneumoniae, K. oxytoca …

Arbitrarily primed PCR (AP-PCR) was used to type 64 clinical isolates of Stenotrophomonas
maltophilia from 60 patients and the hands of one nurse. Forty-seven different patterns were …

Performance of macrorestriction and repetitive extragenic palindromic DNA sequence-
based PCR (REP-PCR) to type Acinetobacter baumannii isolates was quantitatively …

The relationships between isolates suggested by a novel DNA typing method (RAPD-ALFA)
that combines randomly amplified polymorphic DNA with automated on-line laser …

There is still an ongoing demand for a simple broad-spectrum molecular diagnostic assay
for pathogenic bacteria. For this purpose, we developed a single-plex High Resolution Melt …

We describe a new polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for combined gene detection and
epidemiological typing (COGEDET), which allows bacterial typing and gene detection in a …

Acinetobacter spp. are being reported with increasing frequency as causes of nosocomial
infection. In order to identify reservoirs of infection as quickly as possible, a rapid typing …

With increasing rates of antibiotic resistance, bacterial infections have become more difficult
to treat, elevating the importance of surveillance and prevention. Effective surveillance relies …
