| Abstract | In Gwangju, Korea, over the last 4 years, human gastrointestinal infection caused by shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) increased. The aim of this study was to ascertain the genetic relatedness of STEC strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), as no data on the molecular epidemiology of STEC in Gwangju has yet been published. The PFGE banding patterns were defined for 62 of the 67 STEC strains isolated from cattle and human. There were 11 clonal types in the 11 STEC strains of cattle origin. Among the 11 STEC strains from asymptomatic person, four O91 strains were 100% similarity in band profiles. In the STEC strains isolated from diarrhea patients, same serogroups were grouped to the same cluster; O111 stains were 89.5% similarity, O157 strains 80%, O26 strains 81.5%, and O103 strains 91% similarity, respectively. In conclusion, this is the first report that a large collection of STEC strains from Korea has been analyzed, and a high degree of diversity was observed among the strains analyzed by this technique. PFGE analysis revealed that the strains isolated from human and cattle were closely related within serotypes, and it was useful for epidemiological analysis of STEC. The importance and usefulness of active laboratory surveillance of STEC such as PFGE should be recommended. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
