Abstract excerpt
We performed genome size estimation of 17 recent human isolates of Salmonella typhi from geographically diverse regions using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) after digestion of chromosomal DNA with restriction endonucleases XbaI (5'-TCTAGA-3'), AvrII (5'-CCTAGG-3') and SpeI (5'-ACTAGT-3'), and summation of the sizes of restriction fragments obtained. All 17 isolates had circular chromosomes, and genome...
