Broad-Range Direct Detection and Identification of Fungi by Use of the PLEX-ID PCR-Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS) System
21 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
The PLEX-ID system is a novel technology that couples PCR amplification and electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry to identify pathogens directly in clinical specimens. The analytical performance of the PLEX-ID Broad Fungal assay was compared with that of traditional culture identification by using 91 characterized fungal culture isolates (64 manufacturer-claimed and 27 nonclaimed organisms) and directly by...
