Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery, research, and development of new antibiotics: the WHO priority list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and tuberculosis.

Evelina Tacconelli, +81 more
TL;DR: Future development strategies should focus on antibiotics that are active against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and Gram-negative bacteria, and include antibiotic-resistant bacteria responsible for community-acquired infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species-Specific and Ubiquitous-DNA-Based Assays for Rapid Identification of Staphylococcus aureus

TL;DR: A DNA-based test provides a novel diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of S. aureus infections and is simple and can be performed in about 1 h, while the PCR assay was specific and ubiquitous for the identification from bacterial cultures of 195 clinical strains of the bacterium.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Real-Time PCR Assay for Rapid Detection of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Directly from Specimens Containing a Mixture of Staphylococci

TL;DR: A real-time multiplex PCR assay which allows the detection of MRSA directly from clinical specimens containing a mixture of staphylococci in <1 h and was not inhibited in the presence of high copy numbers of MSSA, MRCoNS, or MSCoNS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation between the resistance genotype determined by multiplex PCR assays and the antibiotic susceptibility patterns of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis.

TL;DR: A nearly perfect correlation between genotypic and phenotypic analysis for most of these 394 strains found the usefulness of DNA-based assays for the detection of antibiotic resistance genes associated with staphylococcal infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a PCR Assay for Rapid Detection of Enterococci

TL;DR: A PCR-based assay which allows the detection of enterococci at the genus level by targeting the tuf gene, which encodes elongation factor EF-Tu, and has potential for use in clinical microbiology laboratories.
