Polymerase Chain Reaction for the Diagnosis of Tuberculosis
Dear Editor-in-Chief We read with interest the study by Khazaei et al. (1) in which the authors have nicely concluded that PCR is more sensitive test than Ziehl-Neelsen staining and histo-pathological examination for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). They have rightly pointed to use PCR, selectively, in acidfast bacilli negative paucibacillary forms of TB. However, we intend to highlight few...

متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
Use of polymerase chain reaction for rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis.
A DNA amplification assay using the polymerase chain reaction technique designed for the rapid identification of Mycobacterium bovis organisms was used to test 211 human mycobacterial isolates and 177 clinical specimens previously submitted for routine mycobacterial culture. The procedures described could be used by routine or specialist laboratories for identification of M. tuberculosis comple...
متن کاملUrinary polymerase chain reaction for diagnosis of urogenital tuberculosis.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate diagnostic value of urinary polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in urogenital tuberculosis (UTB). MATERIALS AND METHODS In 33 patients with confirmed diagnosis of UTB by urine culture and/or acid-fast staining, clinical symptoms and laboratory and radiological findings were evaluated. For each patient, 3 consecutive urine samples were examined by...
