摘要
Nucleotide sequencing is the standard molecular method for determination of the beta-lactamase gene present in an isolate. Using minimal sequence quality values prevents misidentification of bla(SHV) genes, as illustrated by three strains of three different species that each contained two different bla(SHV) alleles, SHV-2 and SHV-12.
