Rapid Screening for Penicillin Susceptibility of Systemic Pneumococcal Isolates by Restriction Enzyme Profiling of the pbp2B Gene

Restriction digest profiling of pneumococcal pbp2b-specific amplicons was effective for screening penicillin resistance. The pbp2b amplicon of all pneumococcal isolates for which the MICs of penicillin were ≤0.03 μg/ml had one of two different susceptible restriction profiles, and all 33 isolates fo...
