evaluation of commercial universal rrna gene pcr plus sequencing tests for identification of bacteria and fungi associated with infectious endocarditis.two new commercially available universal rrna gene pcr plus sequencing tests, sepsitest and universal microbe detection (umd; molzym, bremen, germany), were evaluated using blood specimens and heart valves from 30 patients with suspected infectious endocarditis (ie). the sensitivity of pcr (85%) was nearly twice as high as that of culture (45%), which in 10/20 ie cases presumably stayed negative as a consequence of growth inhibition of the pathogens by antibiotics. further, pcr provided the basi ...201121715592
