Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Escherichia coli is a common cause of healthcare-associated urinary tract infection, and is frequently present in the urine of elderly people. Transmission of E. coli between individuals has been suggested, and individuals can be concurrently colonized with several types. Efficient typing methods are required to investigate these epidemiological relationships, and we have examined the applicability of...
