Genotyping of Campylobacter jejuni isolates of poultry origin with different restriction enzymes.

In this study, 28 poultry-originating Campylobacter jejuni isolates were typed by fla typing. The restriction enzymes of AluI, DdeI, HinfI, EcoRI, and PstI were used alone or in combination. Six different profiles were obtained with AluI, DdeI and HinfI+DdeI combination. Seven, five and two different profiles were obtained with PstI, HinfI and EcoRI digestion, respectively. The PstI was found most discriminative for typing poultry-originated isolates.
