Early detection of viable Francisella tularensis in environmental matrices by culture-based PCR

BACKGROUND: Francisella tularensis is a fastidious, Gram-negative coccobacillus and is the causative agent of tularemia. To assess viability yet overcome lengthy incubation periods, a culture-based PCR method was used to detect early growth of the lowest possible number of F. tularensis cells. This...
