Subtyping of Clostridium difficile polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ribotype 001 by repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR genomic fingerprinting.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 May 2005

Abstract excerpt

Fifty isolates of the most common UK strain of Clostridium difficile [polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ribotype 001] were analysed by three PCR-based typing methods in order to determine genomic diversity within this strain that may form the basis of a subtyping method. The three methods used were repetitive extragenic palindromic elements (REP), conserved repetitive DNA elements (BOX), and enterobacterial...
