Abstract excerpt
To type the Vibrio cholerae strains isolated from sporadic and epidemic cases in Taiwan, 28 toxigenic isolates were studied by sequencing polymerase chain reaction-amplified cholera toxin gene (ctx) fragments. Based on specific base substitutions on positions 115 and 203 of ctxB and comparison wi...
