Use of the MicroSeq 500 16S rRNA Gene-Based Sequencing for Identification of Bacterial Isolates That Commercial Automated Systems Failed To Identify Correctly
1 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
Reliable automated identification and susceptibility testing of clinically relevant bacteria is an essential routine for microbiology laboratories, thus improving patient care. Examples of automated identification systems include the Phoenix (Becton Dickinson) and the VITEK 2 (bioMerieux). However, more and more frequently, microbiologists must isolate "difficult" strains that automated systems often fail to...
