Real-Time Reverse Transcription PCR
Real-time, fluorescence-based reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been transformed from an experimental technology into a mainstream scientific tool for the detection of RNA. This is because of several factors: 1) it is a homogeneous assay, which eliminates the requirement for post-PCR processing; 2) it has a wide dynamic range; 3) there is little interassay variation; ...
متن کاملReal-time reverse transcription-PCR assay for detection of mumps virus RNA in clinical specimens.
The mumps virus is a negative-strand RNA virus in the family Paramyxoviridae. Mumps infection results in an acute illness with symptoms including fever, headache, and myalgia, followed by swelling of the salivary glands. Complications of mumps can include meningitis, deafness, pancreatitis, orchitis, and first-trimester abortion. Laboratory confirmation of mumps infection can be made by the det...
متن کاملReal-time reverse transcription-PCR assay for future management of ERBB2-based clinical applications.
BACKGROUND Gene amplification/overexpression of ERBB2 (HER2, neu) is a major event in human breast tumorigenesis. ERBB2-based therapeutic agents and ERBB2-specific gene therapy are under development. These new perspectives call for a sensitive and accurate method to screen breast cancer patients for ERBB2 alterations. METHODS We have developed and validated a real-time quantitative reverse tr...
متن کاملPreclinical evaluation of two real-time, reverse transcription-PCR assays for detection of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus.
We verified the analytical performance characteristics of a previously described real-time reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay targeting the open reading frame (ORF) 1b region of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) with RNA transcripts. We then compared it to a novel nucleocapsid gene real-time RT-PCR assay with genomic RNA. The assays differed only in the primer a...
متن کاملRapid SARS-CoV-2 RT-LAMP assay setup using gene construct design approach
Background and Objective: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still an ongoing challenge in health system worldwide. Molecular detection methods including reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) can help cutting off the transmission chain of the virus. In this study, prompt setting up of the RT-LAMP assays were investigated using ge...
