Subtyping of Listeria monocytogenes strains is an essential epidemiological tool to trace contamination and determine evolutionary relationships among different strains. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is the current gold standard... more
The genetic diversity of Brucella melitensis and Brucella abortus strains isolated in 199 cattle and sheep from 156 brucellosis outbreaks which occurred in 8 regions of Southern Italy in 2011, was determined using a Multiple-Locus... more
Background. Reliable genotyping that provides an accurate description of diversity in the context of pathogen emergence is required for the establishment of strategies to improve disease management. MultiLocus variable number tandem... more
The Escherichia coli (E. coli) reference collection, ECOR, consists of 72 strains that are representative of the genotypic diversity, as indexed by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MLEE), in the species as a whole. MLEE revealed 4 main... more
Estimated has been efficacy of MLVA25 method, used for differentiation and clusterization of Yersinia pestis strains, in reference to Yersinia pseudotuberculosis strains, as well as the search of Y. pseudotuberculosis strains mostly... more
We describe a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) that allowed detection of rRNA consensus sequences from the DNA extracted from a wide range of bacterial species in amounts as low as 10 fg. To avoid false-positive results with universal... more
A female wild boar, aged approximately two years, was found dead by local veterinary services in Pianola di Roio in L'Aquila Province situated in the Abruzzo Region of central Italy. The carcass was submitted to the Istituto... more
