Molecular characterization of enteroinvasive Escherichia coli ipa genes by PCR-RFLP analysis Caracterização molecular do gene ipa de Escherichia coli enteroinvasora pela análise de PCR- RFLP
In this study, polymorphism in ipa genes was found in five out of nine EIEC serotypes studied. When SalI and HindII were used in RFLP-PCR assays many EIEC serotypes showed polymorphism in ipaB and ipaD. On the other hand, no polymorphism was observed in ipaA and ipaC in these strains. The polymorphi...
