Analysis of multilocus sequence typing for identification of Leptospira isolates in Brazil.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Nov 2011

Romero E C, Blanco R M, Galloway R L

Abstract excerpt

A collection of 101 Leptospira isolates was tested by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and by traditional serotyping. MLST divided the isolates into 4 sequence types (STs), while serotyping classified them into 6 serogroups. Two isolates failed to generate products for some genes by MLST. MLST was less discriminatory than serotyping for uncommonly occurring isolates from humans in Brazil.
