Abstract excerpt

A Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting method was developed to differentiate isolates of Salmonella serotype typhi (S. typhi) and other Salmonella isolates. A panel of five primers was used to examine 63 isolates of Salm. typhi, including 56 strains isolated in Taiwan and seven...
