Development of an improved product enhanced reverse transcriptase assay.
A PCR based reverse transcriptase (RT) assay was developed that has 10(4)-fold higher sensitivity than conventional nucleotide incorporation assays and allows discrimination between false positive results generated by cellular polymerases and positives resulting from authentic RT activity. Recently, several reverse transcriptase (RT) assays have been developed where a reverse transcriptase reac...
متن کاملPCR - Based Reverse Transcriptase Assay
ES cells. This phenomenon has been observed in our laboratory in a number of cases. Clones putatively identified as homologous recombinants by Southern analysis can be quickly checked for random insertion of extra copies of the targeting vector by PCR. Given the small difference in size between the two alleles and use of only two primers common to both WT and mutant DNA, the amplification rate ...
متن کاملDevelopment and Evaluation of an Enterovirus D68 Real-Time Reverse Transcriptase PCR Assay
We have developed and evaluated a real-time reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) assay for the detection of human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) in clinical specimens. This assay was developed in response to the unprecedented 2014 nationwide EV-D68 outbreak in the United States associated with severe respiratory illness. As part of our evaluation of the outbreak, we sequenced and published the genome s...
متن کاملNon-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
(NNRTIs) are promising drugs for the treatment of HIV when used in combination with other antiHIV drugs such as nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors and protease inhibitors. The first generation of NNRTIs have, however, suffered from the rapid development of resistance. This review discusses the properties of the FDAapproved NNRTI drugs and focuses on the recent efforts being made t...
متن کاملAn improved and simplified radioisotopic assay for the determination of free and esterified carnitine.
The radioisotopic assay for carnitine first described by Cederblad and Lindstedt (Clin. Chim. Acta. 37:235-543, 1972) and modified by Bohmer et al (Clin. Chim. Acta. 57:55-61, 1974) has been improved and simplified. As a result, the assay yields a linear response over a wide range of carnitine concentrations without the need for excessive amounts of labeled acetyl-CoA. In addition, it will meas...
