Prospective clinical evaluation of the accuracy of 16S rRNA real-time PCR assay for the diagnosis of melioidosis
The accuracy of a Burkholderia pseudomallei 16s rRNA real-time PCR assay was evaluated against culture for the diagnosis of melioidosis in Thailand. A total of 846 samples were obtained from 383 patients with suspected melioidosis. One or more specimens were PCR positive for 47 of 77 patients with c...
