Abstract

We developed and studied a molecular typing approach for Campylobacter spp. with restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the flagellin gene flaA in C. jejuni. Using polymerase chain reaction, we amplified the flaA gene from strains comprising different HL:O serotypes by using a primer set directed at the conserved 5' and 3' flaA gene sequence to generate a 1.7-kb amplicon. The amplicon was further digested with the restriction enzyme DdeI, and the fragments generated were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. In 43 non-outbreak strains of six common HL serotypes (HL 1, 2, 4, 5, 9, and 36) in the United States, 18 RFLP patterns were observed. In U.S. outbreak strains previously studied by 10 other typing methods, flaA typing correlated with the HL serotype within each outbreak, and six additional flaA types were identified. Our results suggest that RFLP analysis of the flaA gene from Campylobacter spp. has sufficient discrimination to be useful as a practical typing method for clinical and epidemiologic investigations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
