Amplification of Bacterial DNA Using Highly Conserved Sequences: Automated Analysis and Potential for Molecular Triage of Sepsis
1 Feb 1995
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The clinical diagnosis of sepsis remains difficult, particularly in the young child, and would be improved by a rapid and reliable method for identification of bacteria in blood and other body fluids. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of highly conserved DNA sequences found in all bacteria would permit fast and sensitive determination of the presence of bacteria in clinical specimens....
