Abstract excerpt
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis was developed and compared with random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method to type 18 Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) strains. All analysed strains were typeable by RAPD but only 89% of MS strains were typeable by PFGE because of DNA degradation. The discriminatory power of RAPD was greater than that of PFGE but the two techniques had a discriminatory index superior...
