Figure Lengend Snippet: Bacterial load of the clinical samples used for isolation expressed as 23S rRNA gene copy numbers per μl in a logarithmic scale (ln). The bacterial load of successfully isolated clinical swabs is compared to unsuccessful isolations while fecal and conjunctival swabs are presented separately.

Article Snippet: All samples with positive results in the real-time PCR were further investigated using a species-specific 23S rRNA Arraymate microarray assay (Alere, Jena, Germany), as established by [ ].

Techniques: Isolation
