Applications of ribosomal RNA gene restriction pattern analysis and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in distinguishing Salmonella welterveden isolates in Malaysia.
A representative sample of 20 isolates of Salmonella weltevredenstrains from stool cultures ofpatients admitted at the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia were analyzed. All the strains weresusceptible to ampicillin, ceftriaxone, ciprofloxacin, chloramphenicol,...
