COMMENTS
The level of similarity score indicates how similar the result from an unknown s
ample is to a reference sample. A higher score indicates that identification is 
possible at the species level, versus an intermediate score that allows identifi
cation at the genus level. Low scores do not allow identification of the organis
m from the unknown sample. The specific scores at which genus- and species-level
 identification is possible vary by microorganism. [PMID: 28143403]
