  • Title: Genetic relatedness of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli cultured from geographically diverse outpatient, midstream urine specimens.
    Author: Karlowsky JA, Kasloff S, Nichol KA, Hoban DJ, Zhanel GG.
    Journal: Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis; 2007 Jul; 58(3):283-7. PubMed ID: 17376632.
    Abstract:
    Genomic DNA from 70 demographically matched geographically diverse pairs of urinary isolates of antimicrobial-susceptible and multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli was restricted using XbaI and analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Antimicrobial-susceptible isolates demonstrated limited genetic relatedness, whereas 2 epidemiologic clusters containing a total of 40 isolates (57.1%) were identified among the multidrug-resistant isolates.
