Combined <it>rpo</it>B duplex PCR and <it>hsp65</it> PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism with capillary electrophoresis as an effective algorithm for identification of Mycobacterial species from clinical isolates

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Mycobacteria can be quickly and simply identified by PCR restriction-enzyme analysis (PRA), but misidentification can occur because of similarities in band sizes that are critical for discriminating among species. Capillary electroph...
