Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) for Cronobacter spp.

Abstract excerpt

MLST is a molecular typing technique that involves the identification and clustering of bacterial isolates based on the partial sequence analysis of multiple housekeeping genes (generally seven) which are distributed across the length of the genome of the organism. The Cronobacter whole genus MLST scheme can be successfully used for an accurate species level identification and classification of this complex genus.
