چکیده

leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease with global distribution that caused by pathogenic spirochetes of the genus leptospira. accurate diagnosis for differentiation of leptospirosis from other pyrogenic infections prevailing in the same locality and is imperative for proper treatment. therefore a molecular diagnostic test with high specificity and sensitivity such as pcr is essential. gene encoding of outer membrane proteins of leptospira are potential candidates that may be useful as diagnostic and analysis of the disease. in this study, lipl21 gene was used for detection and differentiation of pathogenic from saprophytic leptospiral serovars in pcr assays. the leptospiral lipl21 gene expressed only in pathogenic leptospira spp. the bacteria were inoculated into the emjh (with 5% rabbit serum) and extraction of the genomic dna was done by standard phenol-chlorophorm method. the specific primers for proliferation of lipl21 gene were designed. the lipl21 gene was observed in pathogenic leptospira and was not in saprophytic leptospires. the specificity and sensitivity of pcr was evaluated. pcr assay with high specificity and sensitivity may prove to be a rapid method for diagnosing acute leptospirosis and designed a positive control to optimize this diagnostic test. the results showed that molecular detection of pathogenic leptospiras based on lipl21 gene can be used for laboratory diagnosis of leptospirosis.

Detection of pathogenic leptospires in animals by PCR based on lipL21 and lipL32 genes.

Efficacy of primers capable of amplifying conserved outer membrane protein (OMP) genes i.e., lipL21 and lipL32 of Leptospira strains was tested for rapid and early diagnosis of the leptospirosis using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These OMP genes were found to be conserved in various leptospiral serovars viz., Canicola, Pomona, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Pyrogenes, Sejroe, Grippotyphosa, Ballum ...

FlaB PCR-based identification of pathogenic leptospiral isolates.

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The genus Leptospira comprises pathogenic and saprophytic strains. Conventional methods for the identification of pathogenic leptospiral isolates are cumbersome and laborious. In view of these limitations, the search for alternative methods have been focused on DNA based techniques. In this study, we have developed an effective method for the rapid identification of pathogeni...

Detection of leptospiral DNA by PCR.

An EcoRI fragment (1.2 kb) which is highly conserved among Leptospira interrogans isolated in Korea was cloned into pBluescript vector from L. interrogans serovar lai WH20. The EcoRI fragment was sequenced, and a pair of primers (LP1 and LP2) was designed for PCR assay. PCR amplification of target DNA obtained from cultured L. interrogans showed that 274 bp could be detected when as little as 1...

Molecular detection of pathogenic Leptospira in Iran

  Leptospirosis is an acute infectious, systemic and septisemic disease which had recent outbreaks in some parts of Iran especially in north provinces. Rapid detection is a critical step for treatment and control of this disease. In this research a PCR based method was evaluated for detection of Iranian local endemic serovars. All reported endemic serovars of Leptospira including Leptospira gri...

Capripoxvirus identification by PCR based on P32 gene

  Sheeppox virus (SPV) and goatpox virus (GPV) belong to the capripoxvirus genus of Poxviridae family. Sheeppox and goatpox along with contagious ecthyma (CE) are endemic diseases in Iran. Capripox laboratory conformation based on virological and serological techniques are time consuming, laborious and most of them of low specificity, because of close antigenic relationship between capripoxviru...
