Performance Comparison of Two In-House PCR Methods for Detecting <i>Neisseria meningitidis</i> in Asymptomatic Carriers and Antimicrobial Resistance Profiling

<b>Background/Objective:</b> Bacteriological culture has been a widely used method for the detection of meningococcus, but it has low sensitivity and a long turnaround time. Molecular detection targeting capsule transport A (<i>ctrA)</i> gene has been used, but over 16% of meningococcal carriage iso...
