Abstract excerpt
We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the restriction enzymes with rare-cutting sites in the genome of Vibrio parahaemolyticus RIMD 2210633 for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis. The evaluation indicated that PFGE with both NotI and SfiI was discriminatory, but NotI was more cost-effective. Based on the results of this study, we suggest using NotI and SfiI as the 1st and the 2nd restriction enzyme...
