One-step fluorescent probe product-enhanced reverse transcriptase assay.
Recently developed PCR-based reverse transcriptase (RT) assays are useful in the detection of retroviruses since they are approximately a millionfold more sensitive than conventional RT assays. However, these assays are both labor- and time-intensive. The previously described product-enhanced reverse transcriptase (PERT) assay involves a two-step RT-PCR followed by detection and quantitation of...
متن کاملDevelopment of an improved product enhanced reverse transcriptase assay.
A PCR based reverse transcriptase (RT) assay was developed that has 10(4)-fold higher sensitivity than conventional nucleotide incorporation assays and allows discrimination between false positive results generated by cellular polymerases and positives resulting from authentic RT activity. Recently, several reverse transcriptase (RT) assays have been developed where a reverse transcriptase reac...

ES cells. This phenomenon has been observed in our laboratory in a number of cases. Clones putatively identified as homologous recombinants by Southern analysis can be quickly checked for random insertion of extra copies of the targeting vector by PCR. Given the small difference in size between the two alleles and use of only two primers common to both WT and mutant DNA, the amplification rate ...
متن کاملDetection and differentiation of Schmallenberg, Akabane and Aino viruses by one-step multiplex reverse-transcriptase quantitative PCR assay
BACKGROUND Schmallenberg virus (SBV), Akabane virus (AKAV) and Aino virus (AINV) are members of the Simbu serogroup within the genus Orthobunyavirus, family Bunyaviridae, which can cause reproductive disorders including abortion, stillbirth and congenital malformation in ruminants. Because, the clinical signs are similar, confirmatory diagnosis requires viral detection to differentiate infectio...
متن کاملRapid one-step quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR assay with competitive internal positive control for detection of enteroviruses in environmental samples.
Human enteroviruses can serve as a more accurate indicator of human fecal contamination than conventional bacteriological fecal indicators. We describe here a quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR (qRT-PCR) assay specifically tailored to detect these viruses in environmental waters. The assay included a competitive internal positive control (CIPC) that allowed the inhibition of qRT-PCRs to be ...
