چکیده

objective: polymerase chain reaction (pcr) is one of the most important progress in the field of molecular biology and diagnosis. despite simplicity in concept, the reaction needs complex interaction between target sequence, primers, dntps and dna polymerase for a successful amplification and diagnosis. for the detection of rna viruses highly sensetive and specific technique is required. hence amplification based on nested pcr would improve sensitivity, and also use of one step reaction would decrease probable contaminations as reported previously in several studies. the aim of the current study was to develop a new, rapid and sensitive one step– one tube nested pcr in a closed system, by using two novel coherent primers. materials and methods: in this study, a novel and special primer development method was used for one step– one tube reaction. after development and optimization, the assay was evaluated with known positive and negative controls. results: the developed assay was performed on 50 hcv positive samples and 10 negative controls and 5 samples from each hiv, hbv, ttv (torque teno virus) and gbv-c (hepatitis g virus: hgv). based on the obtained results, sensitivity and specifity was calculated. 48 out of 50 hcv positive samples showed expected band while none of the negative controls gave any band. conclusion: based on the specific primer design system which has been used in the current study; the inner primer was synthesized as complementary of routine pcr primers and was bound to the outer primers. therefore, there is no probability for false priming in the both rounds of the reaction, hence there would be no nonspecific amplifications. other advantages of this assay system were prevention of contamination which was due to one step- one tube reaction, decrease in duration and the cost of the reaction.

the use of a sensitive rt-nested pcr method for detection of hepatitis c virus

objective: hepatitis c virus is the major cause of viral hepatitis and its diagnosis in suspected specimens is of great importance. the risk of transfusion- transmitted virus infection is primarily the result of failure in serological screening tests to detect recently infected donors in the pre-seroconversion window period of infection. therefore, sensitive and accurate diagnosis of hcv prior ...

a novel sensitive multiplex rt-pcr elisa method for detection of hiv-1/hcv co-infection

objective: despite sensitive antibody based blood donor screening, infection can be transmitted during window period. therefore sensetive methods bosed on nucleic acid tests (nats) have been considered. the aim of this project was to design a more sensitive method for detection of pcr products and diagnosis of hiv-1/hcv co-infection accurately. materials and methods: after designing specific p...

A fast, highly sensitive double-nested PCR-based method to screen fish immunobiomes.

Efficient methods for constructing 16S tag amplicon libraries for pyrosequencing are needed for the rapid and thorough screening of infectious bacterial diversity from host tissue samples. Here we have developed a double-nested PCR methodology that generates 16S tag amplicon libraries from very small amounts of bacteria/host samples. This methodology was tested for 133 kidney samples from the l...

Development of a diagnostic one-tube RT-PCR for the detection of Rift Valley fever virus.

Diagnosis of Rift Valley fever (RVF) is based on serology and virus isolation. The disadvantages of the former include poor sensitivity, high cost, risks associated with using infectious virus as antigen, the lengthy duration of ELISA as well as cross-reactivity with other Phleboviruses. We developed, optimised and evaluated a one-tube reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) fo...
