Bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter are increasingly being isolated in hospitals and are recognized as emerging nosocomial pathogens. Species identification is difficult and there is a need for simple molecular methods to differentiate between the species. Naturally occurring oxacillinase genes (blaOXA) have been identified in several Acinetobacter species and their detection by PCR can aid in species identification. The aim of this study was to develop a multiplex PCR to identify intrinsic blaOXA genes (i.e. bla(OXA-134-like), bla(OXA-211-like), bla(OXA-213-like), bla(OXA-214-like) and bla(OXA-228-like)) from Acinetobacter spp. for use as a tool for rapid species identification.
