Abstract excerpt
The methods for typing and epidemiological study for especially antibiotic-resistant bacteria has been issued but there are the debates regarding which method is best for this purpose. The purpose of this study is to investigate and apply a comparatively new technology, phage-open-reading frame typing (POT) and repetitive-sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR) using DiversiLab system and compare for the discrimination of...
