Abstract excerpt
Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) has become the gold standard for typing of a variety of bacterial and fungal micro-organisms. Others recently reported the successful use of the tiling DNA array technology to sequence-type Staphylococcus aureus. We now evaluated microarrays based on polymorphism-directed oligonucleotide design for typing of Neisseria meningitidis. The rationale behind this approach was to...
