A Real-Time PCR-Based Semi-Quantitative Breakpoint to Aid in Molecular Identification of Urinary Tract Infections

This study presents a novel approach to aid in diagnosis of urinary tract infections (UTIs). A real-time PCR assay was used to screen for culture-positive urinary specimens and to identify the causative uropathogen. Semi-quantitative breakpoints were used to screen for significant bacteriuria (prese...
