Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates (n = 228) from 122 healthy animals on 11 farms discriminated 57 types. Most clones were found only on individual farms. Numerous clones were found within each farm, with a prevalent clone normally found in several animals. A variety of clones were found within the different phage types.
对来自11个农场122只健康动物的228株大肠杆菌O157:H7分离株进行脉冲场凝胶电泳,鉴别出57种类型。大多数克隆仅在个别农场被发现。每个农场内发现了大量克隆,通常在几只动物中能找到一个优势克隆。在不同噬菌体类型中发现了多种克隆。
