TI  - Rapid identification of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Fusobacterium necrophorum by 
      fluorescence in situ hybridization.
PG  - 255-9
AB  - Identification of clinically relevant Fusobacterium spp. is hampered by their 
      slow growth, their frequent occurrence in polymicrobial culture, and the low 
      reliability of biochemical differentiation methods. A newly developed 
      fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay allowed reliable and rapid 
      identification of Fusobacterium necrophorum and Fusobacterium nucleatum from 
      culture. Preliminary results show that the method offers the perspective for 
      direct detection of these pathogens in blood cultures and abscess aspirates.
