Development and Effective Utilization of a Rapid Multiplex Real-Time PCR of Diarrheagenic for Food Poisoning Cases.

Diarrheagenic (DEC) causes diarrheal symptoms in humans. The comprehensive detection of DEC from feces using SYBR Green real-time PCR assay requires multiple runs. Moreover, PCR screening can have discrepancies related to the conformance between the results from PCR screening and culturing.

Molecular Typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, Using Variable Number Tandem Repeat Analysis.

To investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains collected from patients in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, 483 M. tuberculosis clinical isolates were analyzed using Japan Anti-Tuberculosis Association (JATA) 18-variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) between 2015 and 2019. To evaluate the lineage of M.
