One hundred BacT/ALERT blood culture bottles growing gram-positive cocci in clusters were cultured and studied by LightCycler PCR for the sa442 and mecA genes. PCR was 100% sensitive and specific for detecting Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin resistance in S. aureus but was less accurate for methicillin resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci.
对100瓶培养出呈簇状革兰氏阳性球菌的BacT/ALERT血培养瓶进行培养,并通过LightCycler PCR对sa442和mecA基因进行研究。PCR检测金黄色葡萄球菌及金黄色葡萄球菌中的耐甲氧西林情况时,敏感性和特异性均为100%,但检测凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌中的耐甲氧西林情况时准确性较低。
