Dengue virus replicative intermediate RNA detection by reverse transcription-PCR.
Dengue virus replication involves synthesis of a replicative intermediate RNA (RI-RNA), whose presence reveals an actual infection. We report on a simple and rapid reverse transcription-PCR for the detection of viral RI-RNA in infected cells. The product is demonstrated at 20 min postinfection. This method is useful for the study of virus-cell tropism.
متن کاملQuantitative competitive reverse transcription-PCR for quantification of dengue virus RNA.
A quantitative competitive reverse transcription-PCR assay was developed to quantify dengue virus RNA in this study. The main features include a primer pair targeting a highly conserved region in the capsid and the addition of competing RNA that contains an internal deletion to provide a stringent internal control for quantification. It can be utilized to quantify RNA isolated from the four den...
متن کاملExternal Quality Assessment for the Detection of Measles Virus by Reverse Transcription-PCR Using Armored RNA
In recent years, nucleic acid tests for detection of measles virus RNA have been widely applied in laboratories belonging to the measles surveillance system of China. An external quality assessment program was established by the National Center for Clinical Laboratories to evaluate the performance of nucleic acid tests for measles virus. The external quality assessment panel, which consisted of...
متن کاملReverse transcription-PCR detection of hepatitis G virus.
Hepatitis G virus (HGV) was recently identified as a new member of the Flaviviridae, but its clinical significance is still unclear. Since no immunoassay for the diagnosis of HGV is available, we developed a sensitive reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay to facilitate the detection of the viral genome by mass screening in the clinical laboratory. Sequences within the 5'-noncoding region and...
متن کاملDetection of influenza virus RNA by reverse transcription-PCR and proinflammatory cytokines in influenza-virus-associated encephalopathy.
Eleven children with acute encephalopathy associated with an influenza virus infection were treated during the 1997-1998 influenza season. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay was used to detect the viral genome in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. The results were compared with those of control influenza patients without neurological complication...
