Molecular Techniques in Nocardia Identification

The genus Nocardia, are partially acid-fast, Gram-positive and catalase-positive bacteria that are not normal flora in human and animals. Accurate identification of Nocardia species is important for treatment planning and epidemiology research. To date, the molecular methods such as polymerase chain...

description The genus Nocardia, are partially acid-fast, Gram-positive and catalase-positive bacteria that are not normal flora in human and animals. Accurate identification of Nocardia species is important for treatment planning and epidemiology research. To date, the molecular methods such as polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and polymerase chain reaction sequencing are used for accurate and rapid identification of Nocardia species.
