Rapid detection and serotyping of dengue virus by multiplex RT-PCR and real-time SYBR green RT-PCR.
INTRODUCTION Dengue fever and dengue haemorrhagic fever currently rank highly among the newly-emerging infectious diseases, and are considered to be the most important arboviral disease worldwide. The definitive diagnosis is culture analysis, but practical considerations limit its use. Also, the period for viral detection is limited. Within a day or two after fever subsides, rising levels of an...
متن کاملComparing the Diagnostic Power of Chest CT Scan and RT-PCR in Diagnosis of COVID-19
Background and purpose: Proper diagnosis of patients with COVID-19 is one of the challenges in medical centers. RT-PCR is the standard and reference test in diagnosis of patients with COVID-19. This study aimed at accelerating the correct diagnosis of COVID-19 and the diagnostic power of chest CT scan and RT-PCR. Materials and methods: This study was performed in 569 patients with COVID-19 adm...
متن کاملDiagnosis of Barmah Forest Virus Infection by a Nested Real-Time SYBR Green RT-PCR Assay
Barmah Forest virus (BFV) is a mosquito borne (+) ssRNA alphavirus found only in Australia. It causes rash, myalgia and arthralgia in humans and is usually diagnosed serologically. We developed a real-time PCR assay to detect BFV in an effort to improve diagnosis early in the course of infection. The limit of detection was 16 genome equivalents with a specificity of 100%. Fifty five serum sampl...
متن کاملDevelopment of SYBR Green I Based Real-Time RT-PCR Assay for Specific Detection of Watermelon silver mottle Virus
Background: Watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMoV), which belongs to the genus Tospovirus, causes significant loss in Cucurbitaceae plants. Objectives: Development of a highly sensitive and reliable detection method for WSMoV. Materials and Methods: Recombinant plasmids for targeting the sequence of nucleocapsid protein gene of WSMoV were constructed. SYBR Green I real-time PCR was established...
متن کاملRapid Detection of COVID-19 by RT-LAMP PCR Technique and its Comparison with Real-Time RT-PCR Method
