TL;DR: The results presented here indicate that the proposed identification system will be useful as a routine tool for the identification of clinically important Malassezia species in clinical laboratories.

Antimicrobial resistance of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli with special reference to plasmid profiles of Japanese clinical isolates.
TL;DR: Examination of the kanamycin and chloramphenicol resistance genes of pNR9589 into Escherichia coli showed that the two genes are closely linked or clustered, and Restriction digests revealed that 50-kb plasmids from tetracycline-resistant C. jejuni isolates contain a common fragment related to Kanamycin resistance.

Identification of TEM-135 β-Lactamase in Penicillinase-Producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae Strains in Japan
TL;DR: Ten penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) strains isolated from 2000 to 2008 were characterized by multilocus sequence typing, multiantigen sequence typed, and plasmid typing, suggesting independent origins of these PPNG strains.
