Rapid and Accurate Species Identification of Mitis Group Streptococci Using the MinION Nanopore Sequencer
Differentiation between mitis group streptococci (MGS) bacteria in routine laboratory tests has become important for obtaining accurate epidemiological information on the characteristics of MGS and understanding their clinical significance. The most reliable method of MGS species identification is m...
