Differentiation of Mycobacterium species by direct sequencing of amplified DNA

Rogall, T., Flohr, T., Bottger, E. C.·1990·Journal of General Microbiology

Abstract

Nucleotide sequences specific for a range of Mycobacterium species were defined by computer-assisted sequence comparisons of small subunit ribosomal RNA. A polymerase chain reaction-based sequencing strategy was used to demonstrate that the 16S rRNA sequence can be used for the rapid identification of mycobacterial isolates. Identification at the species level can be obtained within 2 d, requiring less than 10,000 bacteria. This procedure reliably differentiates Mycobacterium spp. which are difficult to identify by classical methods, such as M. malmoense, M. szulgai and M. flavescens.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
