CPLOP: The Cal Poly Library of Pyroprints
… Obispo has developed a new method for MST called pyroprinting. Pyroprints can be used as DNA fingerprints for identifying sources of fecal contamination and studying bacterial populations in host animals. The MST method consists of two parts: the pyroprinting process and a database of pyroprints. …

Escherichia coli Strain Diversity in Humans: Effects of Sampling Effort and Methodology
… biases in sampling method. This study employed pyroprinting, a new inexpensive and simple strain typing method using pyrosequencing, to generate DNA fingerprints (or pyroprints) based on the Intergenic Transcribed Spacer sequences in the ribosomal RNA operon to differentiate <em>E. coli</em> …

Demographics and Transfer of Escherichia coli Within Bos taurus Populations
… a new method of bacterial strain typing called pyroprinting. Bulls from the Cal Poly Bull Test were sampled every summer from May to September when around 200 bulls from ranches across California are housed together to be tested and eventually auctioned off. The impact of cattle origin (ranch, …

An Assessment of Potential False Positive E.coli Pyroprints in the CPLOP Database
… these specific identification methods, known as pyroprinting, relies on the small variation of DNA sequences within the same species to develop a unique, reproducible fingerprint. By simultaneously pyrosequencing multiple polymorphic loci within the ribosomal operons known as the intergenic …

Density-Based Clustering of High-Dimensional DNA Fingerprints for Library-Dependent Microbial Source Tracking
… novel method developed by the biologists called Pyroprinting. The research group considers E. coli samples whose Pyroprints match above a certain threshold to be part of the same bacterial strain. If an environmental sample from an unknown host animal matches one of the strains in CPLOP, then it …
