Novel Diagnostics in Revision Arthroplasty: Implant Sonication and Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction
In orthopedic patients, foreign body-associated infections, especially periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs), are a devastating complication of arthroplasty. Infection requires complex treatment, may result in long hospitalization and causes considerable costs. Multiple surgical revisions can be necessary in these patients, with a loss in function as well as in quality of life. The routine pre...
متن کاملMultiplex polymerase chain reaction diagnostics of bed bug (Hemiptera: Cimicidae).
Cimex lectularius L. (Hemiptera: Cimicidae) is a widespread blood feeding pest of humans around the world, including North America, and has recently undergone a resurgence. A molecular diagnostic technique applying multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed to distinguish bed bug eggs, leg fragments, and degraded samples from other arthropods that frequently occur in human dwelling...
متن کاملRfbo157 by Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction
A rapid method for detection of Escherichia coli O157: H7 using multiplex PCR was developed. Two oligonucleotide primer pairs were used for simultaneously detection of vt encoding verotoxin genes for virulence factor and rfbO157 encoding the O-antigen specific for E. coli O157: H7. Multiplex PCR generated two products of 215 bp and 420 bp for vt and rfbO157, respectively. Multiplex PCR detected...
متن کامل18S rDNA polymerase chain reaction and sequencing in onychomycosis diagnostics.
Diagnostic approaches to onychomycosis have traditionally been based on a combination of culture and microscopy. In the present study clinical specimens from 346 patients with suspected onychomycosis were analysed by 18S polymerase chain reaction (detection) followed by sequencing and subsequent database search (identification) in parallel with routine culture on agar (detection and identificat...
متن کامل"Stat" multiplex polymerase chain reaction: its role in clinical microbiology.
In the laboratory, the department most affected by the introduction of molecular diagnostic tools has been the clinical microbiology laboratory. For organisms such as Clostridium difficile, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard for diagnosis. Incorporation of molecular diagnostic techniques into microbiology laboratories of differing sizes has been hastened by the development of ...
