Determination of penicillin susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae using the polymerase chain reaction.

Molecular pathology : MP - 1 Feb 1997

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To develop a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based method to detect penicillin susceptibility in isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP). METHOD: PCR primers were designed to amplify differential nucleotide sequences of the penicillin-binding protein (PBP) genes 2b, 2x, and 1a in penicillin susceptible and resistant strains of SP. Primers derived from the PBP 2x and 2b genes were designed to amplify...
