Development of a Real Time Rt-pcr Assay for Detecting Genetically Different Pepino Mosaic Virus Isolates

Over a period of few years, Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) has become one of the most important viral pathogen in tomato production worldwide. So far, five PepMV genotypes (EU, LP, CH2, US2 and US1) have been detected. A real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) procedure, using the fluorescence dye SYBR Green was developed for a rapid and reliable detection of genetically ...

Development of a one-step immunocapture real-time TaqMan RT-PCR assay for the broad spectrum detection of Pepino mosaic virus.

A real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was developed for efficient detection of genetically diverse Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) isolates. The novel detection system was designed to use a duo-primer system targeting the conserved region in the triple gene block 2 (TGB2) gene with a single conserved TaqMan probe to broaden its reaction to cover all available PepMV st...

Multiplex real-time reverse transcription-PCR assay for determination of hepatitis C virus genotypes.

A variety of methods have been used to determine hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes. Because therapeutic decisions for chronic HCV-related hepatitis are made on the basis of genotype, it is important that genotype be accurately determined by clinical laboratories. Existing methods are often subjective, inaccurate, manual, time-consuming, and contamination prone. We therefore evaluated real-time ...

One-Step Reverse-Transcription FRET-PCR for Differential Detection of Five Ebolavirus Species

Ebola is an emerging infectious disease caused by a deadly virus belonging to the family Filoviridae, genus Ebolavirus. Based on their geographical distribution, Ebolavirus has been classified into total five species so far, mainly Zaire, Sudan, Taï Forest, Bundibugyo and Reston. It is important to be able to differentiate the Ebolavirus species as they significantly differ in pathogenicity and...
