RESUMO

A fluoresence-based PCR method was developed, fully automated, and used to confirm infection with Neisseria meningitidis by detection of the meningococcus-specific ctrA gene. The method provided a highly sensitive, high-throughput assay that was reproducible and less labor-intensive than manual methods.
