We herein report one case of culture-negative infectious endocarditis (IE) where the organism, Granulicatella elegans, was identified by molecular analysis using broad-range PCR primers complementary to the 16S rRNA gene on the removed valve. The results and utility of this method are discussed.
我们在此报告一例血培养阴性的感染性心内膜炎(IE)病例,通过使用与切除瓣膜上16S rRNA基因互补的广谱PCR引物进行分子分析,鉴定出病原体优雅颗粒链菌。本文讨论了该方法的结果及实用性。
