No Isolate, No Problem: Using a Novel Insertion Sequence PCR to Link Rats to Human Shigellosis Cases in an Underserved Urban Community

During an investigation into a cluster of Shigella flexneri serotype 2a cases in an underserved community, we assessed the relatedness of human and rat S. flexneri isolates utilizing a novel PCR targeting insertion sites (IS-PCR) of mobile elements in the Shigella genome characteristic of the cluste...
