Sensitivity and Specificity of Nucleic Acid Sequence-Based Amplification Method for Diagnosis of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Abstract Background and Objective: Culture, microscopic method is a gold standard method for identification of Lishmania parasite. The use of Molecular methods such as RT- PCR compared to microscopic methods has a higher sensitivity and specificity however, it is not widely used due to its expensive equipment and the time requested. The use of nucleic acid sequence based amplification (NASBA) ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA) and Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction for Detection of Coxsackievirus B3 in Cell Culture and Animal Tissue Samples
Enteroviruses are the causative agents of a number of diseases in humans. Group B coxsackieviruses are believed to be the most common viral agents responsible for human heart disease. Genomic data of enteroviruses has allowed developing new molecular approaches such as Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA) for detection of such viruses. In this study, coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) was de...
متن کاملComparison of the Real-time Nucleic Acid Sequence-based Amplification (RTi-NASBA) with Conventional NASBA, and Galactomannan Assay for the Diagnosis of Invasive Aspergillosis
We compared a real time-nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (RTi-NASBA) with conventional NASBA, galactomannan enzyme immunosorbent assay (GMEIA), and Mycology Study Group of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC/MSG) criteria for the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis (IA). From May 2004 to May 2005, blood samples (314 in total) were collected twice a wee...
متن کاملIsothermal nucleic acid amplification technologies for point-of-care diagnostics: a critical review.
Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) promises rapid, sensitive and specific diagnosis of infectious, inherited and genetic disease. The next generation of diagnostic devices will interrogate the genetic determinants of such conditions at the point-of-care, affording clinicians prompt reliable diagnosis from which to guide more effective treatment. The complex biochemical nature of clinical samples, the l...
متن کاملReal-time nucleic acid sequence-based amplification assay for detection of hepatitis A virus.
A nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA) assay in combination with a molecular beacon was developed for the real-time detection and quantification of hepatitis A virus (HAV). A 202-bp, highly conserved 5' noncoding region of HAV was targeted. The sensitivity of the real-time NASBA assay was tested with 10-fold dilutions of viral RNA, and a detection limit of 1 PFU was obtained. The s...
