A Real-Time Multiplex PCR Assay for Detection ofElizabethkingiaSpecies and Differentiation betweenElizabethkingia anophelisandE. meningoseptica
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACTNosocomial infections ofElizabethkingiaspecies can have fatal outcomes if not identified and treated properly. The current diagnostic tools available require culture and isolation, which can extend the reporting time and delay treatment. Using comparative genomics, we developed an efficient multiplex real-time PCR for the simultaneous detection of all known species ofElizabethkingia, as well as differentiating the two most commonly reported species,Elizabethkingia anophelisandElizabethkingia meningoseptica.
