Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To develop a reverse-line hybridization assay to identify CTX-M genotypes, potentially useful for large-scale investigation of surveillance collections. METHODS: Isolates carrying previously characterized bla(CTX-M) genes were used to develop the method. In addition, 334 isolates from five separate surveys were used to validate the method. CTX-M group was known from an independent multiplex PCR for...
