Development of a polymerase chain reaction test for specific identification of the urinary tract pathogen Aerococcus urinae.

RESUMO

A polymerase chain reaction test was developed for identification of the gram-positive urinary tract pathogen Aerococcus urinae. Oligonucleotide primers were based on highly specific sequences within the small-subunit rRNA gene. A confirmatory test based on hybridization of the amplified products to a highly specific internal probe was also developed.
