Rapid, specific detection and quantification of <i>Yersinia pestis</i> using a species-specific SNP in the ferric uptake regulator gene ( <i>fur</i> MAMA)

2018-06-09

Abstract excerpt

Yersinia pestis , the causative agent of plague, is responsible for about 700 human cases of bubonic and pneumonic plague each year. Yet the disease is far more prevalent within rodent reservoirs than in humans.
