| epidemiological typing of moraxella catarrhalis by using dna probes. | small-fragment restriction enzyme analysis and dna-dna hybridization were used to compare 60 strains of moraxella catarrhalis isolated from various geographic locations. restriction enzyme analysis with haeiii resulted in 46 different patterns, 7 of which were shared by more than one isolate. hybridizations with two dna probes resulted in 18 different patterns, 11 of which were shared by more than one isolate. strains with the same restriction enzyme pattern always had the same hybridization pat ... | 1993 | 8096219 |
