Subdivision of Burkholderia pseudomallei ribotypes into multiple types by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis provides new insights into epidemiology
1 Jul 1995
Abstract excerpt
Ribotyping has previously been used for epidemiological studies of Burkholderia pseudomallei (previously Pseudomonas pseudomallei). We show here that random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis allows subdivision of strains of the same ribotype. With five different primers, no two epidemiologically unrelated isolates of any single ribotype in this study of 102 isolates from humans, goats, cats, and soil had...
