Comparison of four automated microbiology systems with 16S rRNA gene sequencing for identification of Chryseobacterium and Elizabethkingia species
17 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
Chryseobacterium and Elizabethkingia species have recently emerged as causative agents in life-threatening infections in humans. We aimed to evaluate the rates at which four common microbial identification systems identify Chryseobacterium and Elizabethkingia species in clinical microbiology laboratories. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, a total of 114 consecutive bacteremic isolates, including...
