Rapid identification of bacteria by real-time amplification and sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene

To allow rapid identification of bacteria in pure cultures and blood culture bottles, an assay was developed which is based on real-time amplification and sequencing of bacterial 16 S rRNA genes. In principle, this assay allows identification of bacteria from pure cultures within 6.5 h, and from blo...

Zusammenfassung:To allow rapid identification of bacteria in pure cultures and blood culture bottles, an assay was developed which is based on real-time amplification and sequencing of bacterial 16 S rRNA genes. In principle, this assay allows identification of bacteria from pure cultures within 6.5 h, and from blood cultures within approximately 7 h.
