Diagnostics of Neisseriaceae and Moraxellaceae by Ribosomal DNA Sequencing: Ribosomal Differentiation of Medical Microorganisms

Abstract excerpt

Fast and reliable identification of microbial isolates is a fundamental goal of clinical microbiology. However, in the case of some fastidious gram-negative bacterial species, classical phenotype identification based on either metabolic, enzymatic, or serological methods is difficult, time-consuming, and/or inadequate. 16S or 23S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) bacterial sequencing will most often result in accurate...
