Duplex reverse transcription-PCR followed by nested PCR assays for detection and identification of Brazilian alphaviruses and flaviviruses.
A new approach was developed for the rapid detection and identification of Brazilian alphaviruses and flaviviruses. The methodology involves the genus-specific detection of Alphavirus and Flavivirus by a duplex reverse transcription-PCR (D-RT-PCR), followed by multiplex nested PCR (M-N-PCR) or nested PCR (N-PCR) assays for species-specific identification. By this protocol, 25 arboviruses were s...
متن کاملIdentification of introns by reverse-transcription PCR.
analyzing the gene of interest has several advantages over subcloning analysis. This method does not require any information about physical maps of the insert DNA. Positions of transposon insertion are presented as a distance from one end of the genomic DNA. Even if the restriction map is known, this technique should be preferable because of its simplicity. Using this protocol, it takes only on...
متن کاملIdentification of genetic evidence for dobrava virus spillover in rodents by nested reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and TaqMan RT-PCR.
A survey of 158 rodents caught in the Czech Republic identified Dobrava virus sequences closely related to that of the Dobrava virus type strain in Apodemus sylvaticus and Mus musculus rodents. The identity of A. sylvaticus was unequivocally confirmed by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis. The data seem to indicate hantavirus spillover from Apodemus flavicollis to other rodents.
متن کاملDetection and strain identification of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans by nested PCR.
By using PCR, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans strains were identified directly from plaque samples without the need to isolate or culture bacteria. DNA fragments were generated by a nested, two-step PCR amplification of the ribosomal spacer region between the 16S and 23S rRNA genes. For the first amplification, primers homologous to sequences common to all bacterial species were used. This...
متن کاملEvaluation of PCR and nested PCR assays currently used for detection of Coxiella burnetii in Japan.
Detection of Coxiella burnetii, the etiologic agent of Q fever, is important for diagnosis of Q fever. PCR-based methods have been widely used for the detection mostly because isolation of C. bumetii is time-consuming. Recent reports showed that PCR-positive rates of Q fever infection widely differed. We have evaluated the PCR and nested PCR assays currently used in Japan. The nested PCR assay ...
