By MLVA analysis, 44 different alleles were obtained. Dendrogram analysis revealed 104 different genotypes and 19 MLVA-type complexes divided into two main lineages, i.e. mutton and animal stool. Human isolates presented a statistically significant greater odds ratio for clustering with mutton samples compared to animal stool isolates. Five human isolates clustered with animal stool strains suggesting that some of the human infections may be from cattle, perhaps through milk, contact or the environment. Further epidemiological studies are required to explore these sources in context with occurrence of human cases.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0950268814000065","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,14]],"date-time":"2014-02-14T05:33:30Z","timestamp":1392356010000},"page":"2572-2582","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Molecular characterization of Shiga-toxigenic\n                    <i>Escherichia coli<\/i>\n                    isolated from diverse sources from India by multi-locus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA)"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"142","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"KUMAR","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3353-7253","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"N.","family":"TANEJA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
