Eprobe Mediated Real-Time PCR Monitoring and Melting Curve Analysis
Real-time monitoring of PCR is one of the most important methods for DNA and RNA detection widely used in research and medical diagnostics. Here we describe a new approach for combined real-time PCR monitoring and melting curve analysis using a 3' end-blocked Exciton-Controlled Hybridization-sensitive fluorescent Oligonucleotide (ECHO) called Eprobe. Eprobes contain two dye moieties attached to...
متن کاملDetection and genotyping of oocysts of Cryptosporidium parvum by real-time PCR and melting curve analysis.
Several real-time PCR procedures for the detection and genotyping of oocysts of Cryptosporidium parvum were evaluated. A 40-cycle amplification of a 157-bp fragment from the C. parvum beta-tubulin gene detected individual oocysts which were introduced into the reaction mixture by micromanipulation. SYBR Green I melting curve analysis was used to confirm the specificity of the method when DNA ex...
متن کاملRapid, sensitive, and discriminating identification of Naegleria spp. by real-time PCR and melting-curve analysis.
The free-living amoeboflagellate genus Naegleria includes one pathogenic and two potentially pathogenic species (Naegleria fowleri, Naegleria italica, and Naegleria australiensis) plus numerous benign organisms. Monitoring of bathing water, water supplies, and cooling systems for these pathogens requires a timely and reliable method for identification, but current DNA sequence-based methods ide...
متن کاملDetection and differentiation of in vitro-spiked bacteria by real-time PCR and melting-curve analysis.
We introduce a consensus real-time PCR protocol for the detection of bacterial DNA from laboratory-prepared specimens such as water, urine, and plasma. This prototype detection system enables an exact Gram stain classification and, in particular, screening for specific species of 17 intensive care unit-relevant bacteria by means of fluorescence hybridization probes and melting-curve analysis in...
متن کاملEvaluation of DNA Melting Curve Analysis Real-Time PCR for Detection and Differentiation of Cryptosporidium Species
Cryptosporidium spp. are protozoan parasites that infect various vertebrate hosts. Although 10 species are recognized, at least five types have been found to infect human(1). Thus, the identification of Cryptosporidium spp. and genotypes is important for the assessment of public health issues and for tracking infection or contamination sources(2). Presently, the identification of Cryptosporidiu...
