Detection of fungi by conventional methods and semi-nested PCR in patients with presumed fungal keratitis
Background and Purpose: Fungal keratitis is a suppurative, ulcerative, and sight-threatening infection of the cornea that sometimes leads to blindness. The aims of this study were: recuperating facilities for laboratory diagnosis, determining the causative microorganisms, and comparing conventional laboratory diagnostic tools and semi-nested PCR. Materials and Methods: Sampling was conducted in...
متن کاملA method for nested PCR with single closed reaction tubes.
Toward the goal of reducing diagnostic false positives while retaining high sensitivity, a closed-tube nested PCR procedure has been developed for detecting low-copy-number human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) gag target DNA sequences. Master mix for amplification 2, in a hanging gel matrix at the reaction tube top, remains sequestered from the reaction space of the tube during amplification 1. A...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولScreening and Detecting Salmonella in Different Food Matrices in Southern Tunisia Using a Combined Enrichment/Real-Time PCR Method: Correlation with Conventional Culture Method
A combined enrichment/ newly developed invA TaqMan® real-time PCR (qPCR) method as a screening assay to detect Salmonella spp. in 500 naturally food matrices is evaluated. DNA template for qPCR was extracted from an overnight pre-enriched sample in buffered peptone water using lysis-guanidine isothiocyanate method. Heterologous internal amplification control (IAC) was incorporated during qPCR a...
متن کاملThree rapid methods compared with a conventional method for detection of urease production in anaerobic bacteria.
Three rapid methods (spot test, disk, and tube) for detecting urease production in anaerobic bacteria yielded results faster than the conventional method. The results were more consistent with the disk and tube methods than with the spot test. Blood agar plate growth gave more consistent results than growth from chopped-meat slants.
