Determination of hepatitis C virus genotypes by melting-curve analysis of quantitative polymerase chain reaction products.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major causative agent of non-A and non-B viral hepatitis. Factors associated with disease progression following HCV infection include the viral genotype, the patient's alcohol consumption and viral load. In this study, the COBAS AMPLICOR HCV MONITOR test, a commercially available quantitative assay for HCV RNA, was used for HCV genotyping analysis. Amplification p...
متن کاملHigh-throughput avian molecular sexing by SYBR green-based real-time PCR combined with melting curve analysis
BACKGROUND Combination of CHD (chromo-helicase-DNA binding protein)-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with electrophoresis (PCR/electrophoresis) is the most common avian molecular sexing technique but it is lab-intensive and gel-required. Gender determination often fails when the difference in length between the PCR products of CHD-Z and CHD-W genes is too short to be resolved. RESULTS...
متن کامل[Letter to the editor] Combined FAM-labeled TaqMan probe detection and SYBR green I melting curve analysis in multiprobe qPCR genotyping assays.
Since its first use, real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) has evolved into a flexible, application-made method for the quantification and identification of nucleic acids (1-2). Depending on the application, most researchers choose between fluorescent nucleic acid binding dyes or labels that interact by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) as nucleic acid detection methods (2-3). Binding d...
متن کاملSimplified hepatitis C virus genotyping by heteroduplex mobility analysis.
Heteroduplex mobility analysis (HMA) was used to genotype hepatitis C viruses (HCV) with PCR fragments derived from the 5' untranslated region (5'-UTR) or the NS5b region. HCV 5'-UTR fragments were amplified from 296 serum samples by use of a combined reverse transcription-PCR assay, and the genotypes of isolates were determined by sequencing. HCV genotype distributions in Australia were 39% fo...
متن کاملHepatitis C Virus Genotyping in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients
Chronic hepatitis C virus infection is a massive worldwide healthcare burden with estimated costs in the USA alone of over $5 billon per annum. The virus has a 9.5kb positive sense single-stranded RNA genome with striking heterogeneity between isolates, which has led to it being divided into 6 genotypes and more than 50 subtypes and many quasispecies that has been arisen due to the infidelity o...
