A rapid molecular method for characterising bacterial bioburden in chronic wounds.

Polymerase chain reaction is a culture-free method of identifying pathogens. This case study describes how, unlike traditional culture reports, a modification of this technique rapidly determined that Pseudomonas spp. was present in a chronic wound.
