Development of rRNA-Based PCR Assays for Identification of Burkholderia cepacia Complex Isolates Recovered from Cystic Fibrosis Patients
1 Oct 1999
Abstract excerpt
PCR assays targeting rRNA genes were developed to identify species (genomovars) within the Burkholderia cepacia complex. Each assay was tested with 177 bacterial isolates that also underwent taxonomic analysis by whole-cell protein profile. These isolates were from clinical and environmental sources and included 107 B. cepacia complex strains, 23 Burkholderia gladioli strains, 20 Ralstonia pickettii strains, 10...
