Abstract excerpt
Infection of the eye by Pseudomonas aeruginosa can result in corneal inflammation (keratitis) and ulceration, and permanent decrease in vision if not successfully treated. We tested for diversity among P. aeruginosa strains from corneal ulcers by the sensitive and efficient 'RAPD' (for 'random amplified polymorphic DNA') fingerprinting method. This method uses single oligonucleotides of arbitrarily chosen...
