[ 1 ] - The molecular detection of the causative agent of plague on the basis of the pla gene

Yersinia pestis, a gram-negative rod belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family, is the causative agent of plague. Classical methods of detecting the organisms are time-consuming, expensive and dangerous. The aim of the study was to design a Real-time PCR assay on the basis of the pla gene of Yersinia pestis. In this research the Real- time PCR test was optimized by using special primers for ta...
