Simultaneous identification of campylobacters and prediction of quinolone resistance by comparative sequence analysis

Comparative sequence analysis of a 30-bp segment in the quinolone resistance-determining region of campylobacters not only allows for the detection of base changes associated with resistance but also is a powerful tool for species identification based on silent mutations.
