Genetic Identification and Risk Factor Analysis of Asymptomatic Bacterial Colonization on Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices

Figure 1

UP-PCR results of some patients. We have detected all the patients and finally we chose some positive bacteria and carried out the electrophoresis, so every line had PCR products. The deeper the stripe, the more the bacteria. Lines 1–9 represented PCR product of the 16S rRNA gene of Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus viridans, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Corynebacterium parvum, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter cloacae; M for DL2000 DNA Marker; ten for negative control.
