| molecular identification of pathogenicity genes and eric types in vibrio cholerae o1 epidemic strains from mozambique. | the phenotypic and genotypic profiles of the v. cholerae strains causing the mozambican 1997-8 epidemic were characterized to provide a reference for comparison with other epidemic strains. a total of 75 strains of v. cholerae o1 isolated in different provinces, were analysed. strains were characterized by pcr for detecting toxin genes (ctxa, zot and ace), virulence associated genes (tcpa. nanh, hlya and torr) and eric sequences. all v. cholerae strains were serotype o1, ogawa, biotype el tor. m ... | 2001 | 11561970 |
