Detection and Identification ofYersinia pestisby Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Using Multiplex Primers

Application of specific primers and polymerase chain reaction for identification of ralstonia solanacearum biovar2

Identification of Dermatophytes Using Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction

BACKGROUND Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) allows more than two target DNA molecules to be amplified with more than two primers. This method is also useful for detecting various other organisms simultaneously within a single test tube, and the scope of its use has been expanding widely in the field of clinical microbiology in recent years. OBJECTIVE To assess the value of multiplex ...

Detection of Babesia ovis Using Polymerase Chain Reaction.

Detection of Chlamydia trachomatis Using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Chlamydia trachomatis now is one of the most prevalent bacteria sexually transmissible diseases (STD), and as such, constitutes a serious public health problem. Diagnosis of Chlamydial infections is based on isolation of bacteria in tissue culture media that requires at least 48 to 72h. The aim of this study was the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), beca...

Identification of Casuarina-Frankia strains by use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with arbitrary primers.

Free-living N2-fixing Frankia strains isolated from Casuarina sp. were investigated for genomic polymorphism. We used six 10-mer oligonucleotides as single arbitrary primers (AP) for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in order to amplify random DNA fragments in the genome of free-living Frankia strains. Agarose-gels of the amplified genomic DNA revealed that two of the six arbitrary primers sh...
