Detection of pus wound isolate using a polymerase chain reaction targeting 16S rRNA and genes: A case from Indonesia.

Infectious wounds on the skin surface are easily colonized by bacteria from pyogenic group that manifest as inflammation, such as is a Gram-negative bacterium and an opportunistic pathogen known for causing invasive state in critically ill and immunocompromised patients. The aim of this study was to detect the 16S rRNA and genes in using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. The sample in this study was pus isolate from a 5-year-old boy with leg wounds.
