Detection of cdt and clb Genes in pathogenic E.coli
Abstract:Background: Many diseases create the cytolethal-distending toxin (CDT), which is representative of an emerging family of recently identified bacterial compounds. Objective: This study was performed to detect the antibiotic resistance properties and distribution of cdtB and clbA in E. coli strains isolated from urine and stool samples. Materials and Methods: The sensitivity test was evaluated by using different types of antibiotics in the current study, and the cdtB and clb genes were detected by PCR in all bac… Show more
