Repetitive Sequence-Based PCR versus Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis for Typing of Enterococcus faecalis at the Subspecies Level

Repetitive sequence-based PCR was compared to pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) for the ability to discriminate Enterococcus faecalis isolates at the subspecies level. The BOXA2R primer, derived from repetitive sequences in Streptococcus pneumoniae, was applied to 41 isolates of E. faecalis co...
