Development of an immunochromatographic assay for rapid detection of AAC(6')-Ib-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Abstract
To detect aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase-Ib [AAC(6')-Ib]-producing, Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates which are a frequent cause of nosocomial infections in Japan, an immunochromatographic assay was developed using two kinds of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) recognizing AAC(6')-Ib. The results of the assessment were fully consistent with those of aac(6')-Ib PCR analyses.
