Fast typing methods that can easily and accurately distinguish clonal groups and unrelated isolates are of particular interest for microbiologists confronted with outbreaks or performing epidemiological studies. Highly discriminatory universal methods, like PFGE, optical mapping, or WGS, are expensive and/or time-consuming. MLST is useful for phylogeny but is less discriminatory and requires sequencing facilities. PCR methods, which are fast and easy to perform, also have drawbacks. Random PCRs and REP-PCR are universal but lack reproducibility. Other PCR methods may lack the discriminatory power to differentiate isolates during outbreaks. MLVA combines the advantages of PCR methods with a high discriminatory power but in its standard form requires sequencing capillary electrophoresis. The method that we have developed combines the advantages of standard PCR (simple, fast, and inexpensive) with the high discriminatory power of MLVA and permits the typing of allE. coli isolates (either intestinal or extraintestinal pathogenic isolates as well as commensal isolates).
