Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: A rapid random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was developed to distinguish between strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) involved in central venous catheter (CVC)-related bloodstream infection. Its performance was compared with that of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). METHODS: Patients at the University Hospital Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, U.K. who...
