摘要
Primers specific for Escherichia coli 015:K52:H1 were devised based on a novel single-nucleotide polymorphism identified within the housekeeping gene fumC, i.e., G594A. In experiments comparing various reference typing methods, the new primers provided 100% sensitivity and specificity for the 015:K52:111 clonal group, including 162 diverse clinical and reference E. coli isolates.
