Molecular Tests That Target the RTX Locus Do Not Distinguish between Kingella kingae and the Recently Described Kingella negevensis Species

10 Aug 2017

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Kingella kingae is an important invasive pathogen in early childhood. The organism elaborates an RTX toxin presumably restricted to this species. Consequently, real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays targeting the RTX locus have been developed in recent years and are gaining increasing use for the molecular diagnosis of K. kingae infections. However, the present study shows that Kingella negevensis , a...
