Conditions have been optimized for the use of a multiplex PCR for the detection of vancomycin-resistant enterococci in nosocomial surveillance specimens. Seven primer sets targeting the genes vanA, vanB, vanC1, vanC2/C3 Enterococcus faecalis-specific, Enterococcus faecium-specific, and rrs (16S rRNA) were used in one reaction tube. The PCR method developed in the present study is simple and reliable for the rapid characterization of vancomycin-resistant enterococci.
已优化条件,以便在医院监测样本中使用多重聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测耐万古霉素肠球菌。在一个反应管中使用了七组引物,分别靶向vanA、vanB、vanC1、vanC2/C3基因、粪肠球菌特异性基因、屎肠球菌特异性基因和rrs(16S核糖体RNA)基因。本研究开发的PCR方法简单可靠,可快速鉴定耐万古霉素肠球菌。
