Cica Geneus® E. coli POT KIT

Escherichia coli is distributed in environment widely.
In the medical environment, it often causes outbreaks such as food poisoning and
nosocomial infection. Then, infection management practices are important.
The PCR-based ORF Typing（POT） is a molecular epidemiological method which can
identify international clones and distinguish isolates with strain level. Genotypes of
isolates can be obtained using only PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis.

Characteristics

● This POT method developed by Dr. Suzuki of Fujita health University,
it’s a molecular epidemiological method which can identify and distinguish
isolates with strain-level.
● This POT method can compare the homogeny between strains by digitizing
(replace to POT types) an electrocataphoresis result.
● Nearly the same discriminability as the pulsed field gel electrophoresis（ PFGE）.
● Required for the examination time is approximately 4 hours.
