Numerous instances of reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition of the PCR were observed while developing nonquantitative uncoupled RT-PCR techniques for detecting nitrogenase and ammonia monooxygenase gene expression in situ. The inhibitory effect of RT on the PCR was removed with increasing template concentrations beyond 10(5) to 10(6) copies. Including T4 gene 32 protein during the reverse trans...

Neisseria meningitidis (Nm), Haemophilus influenzae (Hi), and Streptococcus pneumoniae (Sp) are the lead causes of bacterial meningitis. Detection of these pathogens from clinical specimens using traditional real-time PCR (rt-PCR) requires DNA extraction to remove the PCR inhibitors prior to testing, which is time consuming and labor intensive. In this study, five species-specific (Nm-sodC and ...

Type I trichomes of tomato leaves (Solanum lycopersicum Mill. cv. Moneymaker), as outgrowths the plant epidermis, are suitable for monitoring infection processes powdery mildew species using a high-fidelity digital microscope (DM) without fungal staining. On trichomes, (Pseudoidium neolycopersici L. Kiss) isolate KTP-03 produced maximum four vigorously elongated hyphae per conidium, which stopp...

Introduction: Accurate diagnosis of the COVID-19 disease is important. Currently, chest computed tomography (CT) and reverse polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) are being used for disease. This study was performed to evaluate Chest diagnostic value in comparison with RT - PCR method among patients. Methods: cross-sectional on suspected cases Imam Khomeini Hospital, Jiroft, Iran. Studied patients...

background and aims: virus infections represent some of the most important diseases of lily, plants because of the devastating effects caused to the crops and the absence of effective treatments. a survey for virus diseases of lilies, revealed the occurrence of cucumber mosaic virus (cmv) in plants growing in tehran province, iran. materials and methods: during 2013, 50 lily samples with virus-...

the present study was conducted on sixty healthy female domestic ruminants that suffered from still births or abortion, to find sero-positive cases and also to determine the probable role of uterine tissue in diagnosis of akabane viral infection and viral persistency. because of this, a serological test (elisa) and molecular (rt-pcr) diagnostic methods were used to find the seropositive cases a...

there are many effective chemothereutic agents used in influenza disease which some of them inhibit virus replication by interfering with fluv (influenza virus) viral binding or its penetration into cell membrane. a series of polyoxometalates compounds such as pom-523 and pm-504 have been synthesized and have showed inhibitory effects on viruses. in this study we examined anti influenza activit...

in this study, the full-length m2 gene of the avian influenza virus (h9n2) was isolated, analyzed and studied in detail. total rna was extracted and cdna of the m2 mrna was obtained by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) using random hexamer oligoes; specific primers were used for amplification of the m2 open reading frame (orf) region. pcr was able to amplify the desirable...
