Stabilized, freeze-dried PCR mix for detection of mycobacteria.
We report here the development of a freeze-drying procedure allowing stabilization at ambient temperature of preoptimized, premixed, and predispensed PCR mixes aimed at the detection of mycobacteria in clinical materials. The freeze-dried mixes retained activity at 4 degrees C and at 20 degrees C for 1 year and for 3 months at 37 degrees C, as judged by their performance with 50 and 500 fg of p...
متن کاملRapid-cycle PCR for detection and typing of Mycoplasma pneumoniae in clinical specimens.
We designed several new primers and modified previously described species- and type-specific primers targeting the Mycoplasma pneumoniae P1 adhesin gene. Optimized thermal profiles allowed one-step or nested PCR to be completed in less than 1 h. In 10 patients with pneumonia, M. pneumoniae type 1 was identified in 3 and type 2 in 7.
متن کاملModified DNA Extraction for Rapid PCR Detection of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococci
Nosocomial infection caused by methicillin-resistant staphylococci poses a serious problem in many countries. The aim of this study was to rapidly and reliably detect methicillin-resistant-staphylococci in order to suggest appropriate therapy. The presence or absence of the methicillin-resistance gene in 115 clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and 50 isolates of Coagulase Negative Staphy...
متن کاملA rapid, early detection of oral squamous cell carcinoma: Real time PCR based detection of tetranectin
The current study is focused on determining the mRNA expression levels of tetranectin, to detect oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and thus aiding in its classification at an early stage. RNA was isolated and cDNA synthesis was performed from the saliva samples of the patients and healthy individuals. A semiquantitative PCR based analysis was performed prior to quantitative and expression bas...
متن کاملSimple and Rapid Detection of Yersinia Pestis and Francisella Tularensis using Multiplex-PCR
Background: Yersinia pestis and Francisella tularensis cause plague and tularemia, which are known as diseases of the newborn and elderly, respectively. Immunological and culture-based detection methods of these bacteria are time-consuming, costly, complicated and require advanced equipment. We aimed to design and synthesize a gene structure as positive control for molecular detection of these ...
