Molecular Epidemiological Screening of the Genome of the Strain Coxiella burnetii NL3262 (Netherlands, 2009) Using Formal Order Analysis ; Молекулярно-эпидемиологический скрининг генома штамма Coxiella burnetii NL3262 (Netherlands, 2009) методом формального анализа строя

Background. More than 4,000 cases of acute disease in humans were reported during the mass Q fever outbreak in the Netherlands in 2007–2010. The Coxiella burnetii NL3262 strain was isolated during this outbreak from an aborted placenta of a goat and was studied using means of molecular biology and bioinformation techniques. Goals. Approbation of a new bioinformatics approach – formal order analysis – to study the origin of the strains that caused a massive outbreak of Q fever in the Netherlands using the C. burnetii NL3262 strain. Methodology. New tools of the formal order analysis (FOA) «Map... Mehr ...
