Full pathogen characterisation: species identification including the detection of virulence factors and antibiotic resistance genes via multiplex DNA-assays

Abstract Antibiotic resistances progressively cause treatment failures, and their spreading dynamics reached an alarming level. Some strains have already been classified as highly critical, e.g. the ones summarised by the acronym ESKAPE (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumo...
