Popis: | porB PCR-amplicon restriction endonuclease analysis is a rapid, simple method developed to assess porB variation in nonserotypeable meningococci isolated during New Zealand's epidemic of meningococcal disease. Most nonserotypeable meningococci isolated between 1990 and 1999 inclusively either were type 4 (40.5%) or contained the porB variable region 1 (VR1)-19, VR2-D, VR3-7, and VR4-14a sequences (45.1%). |
