We report herein the use of crude extracts obtained from samples of -infected horses for the purpose of multi-locus sequence typing (MLST). Samples ( = 36) were collected from horses in South Africa from 1996 to 2017: 34 from genital swabs (stored at -20°C for 2-3 y) and 2 from cryopreserved raw semen aliquots (stored at -70°C for 18 y) prior to assay. The MLST assay showed a single sequence type (ST), designated ST4, that supported a point introduction and thus a common source for the South African outbreak of contagious equine metritis.
我们在此报告,为进行多位点序列分型(MLST),使用了从感染马的样本中获得的粗提物。1996年至2017年期间从南非的马匹中采集了样本(n = 36):34份来自生殖器拭子(在-20°C下保存2 - 3年),2份来自冷冻保存的原精液等分试样(在-70°C下保存18年),然后进行检测。MLST检测显示了单一的序列类型(ST),命名为ST4,这支持了一个单点引入,因此是南非传染性马子宫炎爆发的共同来源。
