Abstract excerpt
One approach to the accurate determination of the pathogenic potential (pathotype) of isolated Escherichia coli strains would be through a complete assessment of each strain for the presence of all known E. coli virulence factors. To accomplish this, an E. coli virulence factor DNA microarray composed of 105 DNA PCR amplicons printed on glass slides and arranged in eight subarrays corresponding to different E....
