Evaluation of 16S rRNA broad range PCR assay for microbial detection in serum specimens in sepsis patients
12 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Early and accurate laboratory diagnosis and appropriate management of infection improves the survival rate in sepsis. In this study we evaluated broad range 16S rRNA and 16 S-23 S intergenic spacer region (ISR) PCR assays followed by nucleotide sequencing directly from patients' serum and automated blood culture for laboratory diagnosis in admitted sepsis patients. METHODS: A broad range 16S rRNA PCR...
