متن کاملMolecular detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae by quantitative real-time PCR in patients with community acquired pneumonia
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the most important and common cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The conventional detection methods (culture and serology) lack sensitivity. PCR offers a better approach for rapid detection but is prone to carry over contamination during manipulation of amplification products. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) method offers an attrac...
متن کاملCommunity-acquired pneumonia by Chlamydophila pneumoniae: a clinical and incidence study in Brazil.
