Researchers unveil faster method to identify closely related bacteria
Original: Alternative found to facilitate the identification of highly similar bacteria
Researchers at the University of the Basque Country (EHU) report finding an alternative approach that makes it easier to identify bacteria that are highly similar to one another. Such close resemblance traditionally complicates microbial identification, and the new method is presented as a way to streamline that process. Details of the technique and its practical applications have not been widely reported yet.
Why now: A university research team has announced a new method for a long-standing difficulty in microbiology, drawing attention from the scientific community.
