Evaluation of multiplex tandem PCR (MT-PCR) assays for the detection of bacterial resistance genes among Enterobacteriaceae in clinical urines
20 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
Background: Increasing resistance drives empirical use of less potent and previously reserved antibiotics, including for urinary tract infections (UTIs). Molecular profiling, without culture, might better guide early therapy. Objectives: To explore the potential of AusDiagnostics multiplex tandem (MT) PCR UTI assays. Methods: Two MT-PCR assays were developed successively, seeking 8 or 16 resistance genes....
