PCR-RESTRICTION FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM OF CAMPYLOBACTER JEIUNI ISOLATES

Abstract
Forty two isolates of Campylobacter jejuni obtained from raw milk samples were characterized by PCR-RFLP technique. ln PCR-RFLP, the hipO gene amplicons were digested using three restriction enzymes namely, Mn/l, Xcel and Psul. All samples showed similar proļ¬les with Xcel, Mn}! and Psul, indicating no polymorphism. This assay can be performed in one work day, is highly discrimi-natory, and is much more efficient than classical phenotypic identification.
