Genetic profiling of Campylobacter jejuni strains from humans infected in Sweden or in Thailand, and from healthy Swedish chickens, studied by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE).

Abstract excerpt

The major objective of the study was to explore the genomic diversity between Campylobacter jejuni (C.jejuni) from different sources as a tool for epidemiological considerations. Subtyping was performed using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and the enzyme used for cleavage was SmaI. Isolates originated from humans infected in Sweden (n=49) and Thailand (n=32) and from healthy Swedish chickens (n=51)....
