Genus-Specific Detection of Salmonellae using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

Detection of Babesia ovis Using Polymerase Chain Reaction.

Species Specific DNA Profiling Mycobacterial Genomes Using Polymerase Chain Reaction with Single Universal Primer (UP-PCR)

Three tuberculous, twenty-one non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) reference strains and seventy two isolates classified by biochemical tests were shown to produce specific sets of DNA fragments in a polymerase chain reaction with single universal primer (UP-PCR). A rather wide limit of tolerance for variations in procedure of PCR mixture preparation and thermocycling parameters was found. There...

Detection of Chlamydia trachomatis Using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Chlamydia trachomatis now is one of the most prevalent bacteria sexually transmissible diseases (STD), and as such, constitutes a serious public health problem. Diagnosis of Chlamydial infections is based on isolation of bacteria in tissue culture media that requires at least 48 to 72h. The aim of this study was the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), beca...

abrin gene detection, using polymerase chain reaction (pcr)

abrin known as ribosome inactivating protein’s (rip) it is a high cytotoxic plant protein. high lethality and low cost and easy access to plant and seeds lead to this toxin used in crimes and terrorist acts. because obtaining purified toxins requires advanced laboratory equipment and complex procedures, so, it appears that the perpetrators of such crimes use crude extracts. as a result, remaini...

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a powerful and widely used technique that has greatly advanced our ability to analyze genes. Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) present in cells contains many thousands of genes. This makes it difficult to isolate and analyze any individual gene. PCR allows specific DNA sequences, usually corresponding to genes or parts of genes, to be copied from genomic...
