Rapid identification of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia by peptide nucleic acid fluorescence in situ hybridization

The objective of this study was to develop a novel peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probe for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia identification by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The probe was evaluated using 33 human and veterinary clinical S. maltophilia isolates and 45 reference strains representi...
