Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal DNA from 62 strains of 'Campylobacter upsaliensis' from blood and faecal specimens of patients in Australia, Belgium, South Africa and England, and seven dog isolates from England and Sweden were examined. DNA base compositions of 21 strains were 35 +/- 1 mol% G + C. Electrophoresis of HaeIII DNA digests gave patterns comprising about 20 well resolved bands of 2 to 10 kb, and visual comparisons...
