1 Clonal spread of staphylococci among patients with peritonitis associated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis  Tor Monsen, Carin Olofsson, Marianne Rönnmark, Johan Wiström  Kidney International  Volume 57, Issue 2, Pages (October 2000) DOI: /j x Copyright © 2000 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns of SmaI digested chromosomal DNA from 9 isolates representing two different clones of S. epidermidis isolated in the dialysis effluent obtained from 6 and 3 patients, respectively. Lane S, molecular standard; lanes 1 to 6 represent isolates of S. epidermidis with indistinguishable chromosomal pattern obtained from 6 patients, lanes 7 to 9 are isolates of S. epidermidis with an indistinguishable chromosomal pattern obtained from 3 patients.

3 Figure 2 PFGE patterns of SmaI digested chromosomal DNA from isolates of 13 S. epidermidis found in 13 repeated samples of dialyze effluent from one patient. Lanes 1 to 13 are chromosomal S. epidermidis DNA. Identical chromosomal DNA patterns are observed in lanes 3 to 5 and 7 to 13. A closely related chromosomal pattern is in lane 2, and non-identical chromosomal patterns are in lanes 1 and 6.
