Abstract
Two new PCR assays (for Ralstonia species and Ralstonia respiraculi), together with previously published PCR assays, were used to assess Ralstonia isolates recovered from 111 cystic fibrosis patients. Ralstonia mannitolilytica accounted for 46% of isolates, while R. respiraculi and Ralstonia pickettii accounted for 19% and 18%, respectively. Ralstonia basilensis and Ralstonia metallidurans, species not previously recovered from human samples, were also identified.Entities:
