[Restriction analysis of Bordetella pertussis DNA isolated from patients with whooping cough in 1968 and 1995-98 and B. pertussis used for production of national vaccine strains].

Abstract excerpt

The genotypic and serotypic analysis of B. pertussis strains isolated from the nasopharynx of children with whooping cough in the years 1968 and 1995-98 and B. pertussis vaccine strains was the aim of this study. The genotyping of the examined strains was done by electrophoretic division of DNA in pulsed field. The 3 types (A, B, C) and 2 subtypes (A1 and A2) of DNA restriction patterns were determined for the B....
