Invasive aspergillosis (1 is a life-threatening condition in immunocompromised patients. An early diagnosis is of great importance because early treatment may resolve this potentially fatal infection. Recently, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used successfully in detecting specific DNA of several pathogen. In this study, nested PCR was used to detect DNA specific for A!.pergiflus s...

the broad goal of this research was to examine the nature of the melanocortin receptor 1 (mc1r) locus on the coat color phenotype of seven goat breeds with different color coat. blood samples were collected from five iranian indigenous (khalkhal, markhor, naeini, najdi and tali) and two exotic (cashmere and saanen) goat breeds. polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism ...

Background: Malaria is still account for 200 million cases annually. Microscopy is the gold standard technique for malaria parasites detection. PCR-based techniques can detect malaria infections with high sensitivity. The study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of microscopy technique in the detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, using monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira State, Central Sudan. Met...
