Ribotyping differentiates relapse from reinfection in the treatment failures of Escherichia coli urinary tract infections in children.

E Bingen1, M Rangaraj, C Safran.   

Abstract

Analysis of restriction fragment-length polymorphism of ribosomal DNA regions (ribotypes) was used as an epidemiologic tool to compare 25 pre- and posttreatment strains obtained from 12 patients treated with either cefpodoxime proxetil or amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. Ribotyping is a promising method to differentiate relapse from reinfection in the treatment failures of Escherichia coli urinary tract infections.
