Abstract:
Typical methods for the identification of Burkholderia pseudomallei colonies produce results in 18 h. The Remel RapID NF Plus kit produces results in 4 h. We used the kit for 190 stored B. pseudomallei isolates and correctly identified 189 of them. This kit produces consistent results for known B. pseudomallei isolates.
