Figure 2. XbaI and NotI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns for Escherichia coli O114:H4-ST117 (lanes 2 and 3). Lane 1 is the positive control E. coli O11:H18-ST69 (SEQ102), lane 2 is an E. coli O25:H4-ST131 isolate from a retail chicken sample (EC01DT06-1737-01), and lane 3 is an E. coli isolate from a human urinary tract infection case (MSHS 1014A). Outer and center lanes are pulsed-field molecular weight markers.
