Comparison between<i>rpoB</i>and 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing for Molecular Identification of 168 Clinical Isolates of<i>Corynebacterium</i>
1 Apr 2005
Abstract excerpt
Higher proportions (91%) of 168 corynebacterial isolates were positively identified by partial rpoB gene determination than by that based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. This method is thus a simple, molecular-analysis-based method for identification of corynebacteria, but it should be used in conjunction with other tests for definitive identification.
