Diversity of O antigens within the genus Cronobacter: from disorder to order
Original language description
Cronobacter species are Gram-negative opportunistic pathogens that can cause serious infections in neonates. The lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) that form part of the outer membrane of such bacteria are possibly related to the virulence of particular bacterial strains. However, currently there is no clear overview of O-antigen diversity within the various Cronobacter strains and links with virulence. In this study, we tested a total of 82 strains, covering each of the Cronobacter species. The nucleotide variability of the O-antigen gene cluster was determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. As a result, the 82 strains were distributed into 11 previously published serotypes and 6 new serotypes, each defined by its characteristicrestriction profile. These new serotypes were confirmed using genomic analysis of strains available in public databases: GenBank and Pub-MLST Cronobacter. Laboratory strains were then tested using the current serotype-specific PCR probes.
