【 摘 要 】
Molecular subtyping and DNA sequencing-based methods, which are commonly used for discriminating Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) isolates, lead to improved molecular epidemiological investigations for prevention and control of typhoid fever. We obtained S. Typhi blood isolates (n = 66) from India during 2007–14 for molecular subtyping by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) in association with antibiotic resistance profiles. Genotypic diversity was observed more by MLVA (Simpson’s index of diversity, D value = 0.997) than PFGE (D value = 0.864). Two prevalent pulsotypes containing nalidixic acid-resistant (NALR) and NALR-ciprofloxacin-resistant (CIPR) S. Typhi isolates circulated in India. Multidrug-resistant (MDR), NALR-CIPR, and most NALR isolates were found to be clonal by PFGE. MLVA could differentiate the clonal isolates. Most of the MDR and NALR-CIPR isolates showed variation in single or double VNTR loci, whereas NALR isolates varied in more than 2 loci, reflecting higher genetic diversity among the NALR isolates. Of the 6 VNTR loci, TR4,699 (D value = 0.838) and Sal02 (D value = 0.890) loci played important roles as MLVA cluster-supporting alleles. The rapid turnaround time and high-level discriminatory power of MLVA may be useful for tracking and controlling the transmission of S. Typhi isolates during epidemiological investigations.
