Detection of untreated mycobacteria by using polymerase chain reaction and specific DNA probes.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Aug 1991

Fries J W, Patel R J, Piessens W F, Wirth D F

Abstract excerpt

A method for specific identification of mycobacteria by using the polymerase chain reaction on organisms taken from liquid cultures, frozen suspensions, or colonies grown on Lowenstein-Jensen slants is presented. This direct detection of mycobacterial organisms has important implications for strain typing and diagnosis.
