background and objectives: hbv dna monitoring is important in management of chronic viral hepatitis b infection. hbv dna measurements are carried out over period of months to years. so the analytical system must be stable and reproducible. the aim of this study was to determine the performance characteristics and to plan a statistical quality control system of a laboratory-developed real-time q...

conclusions our results demonstrated a novel h7n9 virus in chickens in taizhou city in 2013 that may pose a potential risk to public health. results of 150 samples tested, 7 were detected to be h7n9 positive which all were collected from chickens. also, a novel h7n9 virus strain (a/chicken/jiangsu/1021/2013) was isolated and studied. phylogenetic analysis showed the novel isolated h7n9 virus ha...

background: the wilms tumor 1 (wt1) gene is originally defined as a tumor suppressor gene and a transcription factor that overexpressed in leukemic cells. it is highly expressed in more than 80% of acute myeloid leukemia (aml) patients, both in bone marrow (bm) and in peripheral blood (pb), and it is used as a powerful and independent marker of minimal residual disease (mrd);we have determined ...

vaccines is considered as a critical point and in-process of quality control (ipqc) test of vaccine production. rapid tests, like real time pcr, are more appropriated when the production occurs at industrial scale because of the amounts of starting materials and the excess of consumed time required. in the current study, a real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (...

conclusions this study showed that this novel one-step rrt-pcr assay is a rapid, reliable, repeatable, specific, sensitive, and simple tool for the detection of the cchf virus. results from a total of 75 suspected serum samples, 42 were confirmed to be positive for cchf virus, with no false-positives detected by the sequencing results. after 40 amplification cycles, the melting curve analysis r...
