ABSTRACTWe compared two real-time PCR assays (both by the use of melting curve analysis) for their ability to identify Staphylococcusspecies directly from 200 positive blood culture bottles. The PCR assays correctly identified 83% to 94% of the Staphylococcusisolates to species clusters. Molecular testing significantly outperformed commercially available latex tests (sensitivity for both latex tests, <15%) when it was used directly with broth from signal-positive blood cultures. |
