[Phenotypical and molecular-genetic typing of salmonellae: reality and prospects]
Abstract:
The importance of the intraspecific typing of salmonellae for effective epidemiological analysis is shown. The methods (phenotypical and genotypical), used for the epidemiological marking of salmonellae, are characterized, their advantages and drawbacks, as well as prospects of their further use, are given. The importance of the standardization of molecular-genetic methods to ensure data exchange between different laboratories and the investigation of international outbreaks of enteric infections is pointed out. The international projects PulseNet and Salmgene of the surveillance of Salmonella infection, based on genotyping of Salmonella isolates, are presented.
