Figure 1. XbaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis profiles of Escherichia coli clonal group A (CGA) isolates and E. coli O157:H7. Lane numbers are shown below the gel image. Six CGA isolates from Chicago, IL ("A" series identifiers; lanes 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8) exhibit similar profiles to reference CGA isolates SEQ102 (from California; lane 2) and UMN26 (from Minnesota; lane 6) (1). E. coli O157:H7 isolate G5244 (lane 9) exhibits a distinctive profile.
