Identification of Amelogenin Gene on Burnt Teeth Samples through Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction Amplification for Sex Identification

Sex determination of cattle meat by polymerase chain reaction amplification of the amelogenin gene

Aim: The objective of this study was to develop a simplified, efficient, and accurate protocol for sexing of cattle meat based on the amelogenin (AMELX/AMELY) gene using PCR technique which is superior to earlier work in terms of band patterns. Materials and Methods: Based on the amelogenin gene located on the conservation region of X and Y chromosomes, a pair of primers was designed and the sy...

Polymerase chain reaction assay targeting nox gene for rapid identification of Brachyspira canis in dogs

Genus Brachyspira,as Gram negative anaerobic bacteria, colonize in dogs intestine. The aim of the current study was to determine the prevalence of Brachyspira spp. for the first time in Iran and rapid identification of Brachyspira spp. in dogs by a new designment of a species-specific primer set for B. canis. One hundred fifty-one fecal samples were obtained ...

Application of specific primers and polymerase chain reaction for identification of ralstonia solanacearum biovar2

SPECIFIC AMPLIFICATION OF ASPERGILLUS FUMlGATUS DNA BY POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION

Invasive aspergillosis (1 is a life-threatening condition in immunocompromised patients. An early diagnosis is of great importance because early treatment may resolve this potentially fatal infection. Recently, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used successfully in detecting specific DNA of several pathogen. In this study, nested PCR was used to detect DNA specific for A!.pergiflus s...

Identification of pathogenic yeast species by polymerase chain reaction amplification of the RPS0 gene intron fragment.

AIMS This work focuses on the development of a method for the identification of pathogenic yeast. With this aim, we target the nucleotide sequence of the RPS0 gene of pathogenic yeast species with specific PCR primers. PCR analysis was performed with both the genomic DNA, whole cells of clinical isolates of Candida species and clinical samples. METHODS AND RESULTS A single pairs of primers, d...
