    Author: Antonov VA, Iliukhin VI, Senina TV, Loboĭko AD, Tkachenko GA, Zinchenko OV, Mazurova IIu.
    Journal: Zh Mikrobiol Epidemiol Immunobiol; 2008; (4):78-82. PubMed ID: 18822500.
    Abstract:
    AIM: Evaluation of the diagnostic value of pheno- and genotypic characteristics of B. cepacia strains collection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Phenotypic and genetic methods of identification and differentiation of 25 strains of the B. cepacia complex. RESULTS: Polyphasic taxonomic approach utilizing multiple diagnostic tests was used for accurate identification of Burkholderia species. Algorithm for identification of microorganisms from the B. cepacia complex was developed. CONCLUSION: Combined use of phenotypic and molecular genetic tests, such as recA gene PCR, is recommended for differentiation of the B. cepacia complex genomovars.
