RAPID MULTIPLEX PCR ASSAY FOR SIMULTANEOUS DETECTION OF MAJOR ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE DETERMINANTS IN CLINICAL ISOLATES OF BACTEROIDES FRAGILIS
2008-12-01
Abstract excerpt
This study developed a rapid and cost-effective multiplex polymerase chain reaction assay (M-PCR) for simultaneous detection of major clinically relevant antibiotic resistance genes in Bacteroides fragilis. The M-PCR optimized amplification conditions with primers designed for detection of five resistance genes: carbapenems (cfiA) and cephalosporins (cepA), clindamycin (ermF), metronidazole (nimA-F) and tetracycli...
