Abstract excerpt
Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) has been developed to extend the identification of SHV beta-lactamases previously characterised by PCR-single strand conformational polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis alone. Eight bacteria, each producing a different SHV beta-lactamase, were used in this study. These bacteria harbour bla(SHV-1), bla(SHV-2a), bla(SHV-3), bla(SHV-4),...
