A Real-Time PCR Array for Hierarchical Identification of Francisella Isolates
A robust, rapid and flexible real-time PCR assay for hierarchical genetic typing of clinical and environmental isolates of Francisella is presented. Typing markers were found by multiple genome and gene comparisons, from which 23 canonical single nucleotide polymorphisms (canSNPs) and 11 canonical insertion-deletion mutations (canINDELs) were selected to provide phylogenetic guidelines for clas...
متن کاملReal-time PCR for Francisella tularensis Types A and B
Emerging Infectious Diseases • www.cdc.gov/eid • Vol. 12, No. 11, November 2006 1799 6.4 nmol/L and that showed an H243Y mutant type codon. The role of such a polymorphism appears unclear. We found no association between the 3-bp indel in G7 and in vitro dhART susceptibility because mutants were regularly distributed in highly susceptible isolates and in isolates having a diminished susceptibil...
متن کاملA Bayesian hierarchical model for quantitative real-time PCR data.
We present a Bayesian hierarchical model for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) data, aiming at relative quantification of DNA copy number in different biological samples. The model is specified in terms of a hidden Markov model for fluorescence intensities measured at successive cycles of the polymerase chain reaction. The efficiency of the reaction is assumed to depend on ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a real-time PCR assay for detection and quantification of Francisella tularensis.
The facultative intracellular bacterium, Francisella tularensis, is an etiological agent of tularemia and is also considered to be a potential biological threat agent due to its extreme infectivity. We established a real-time PCR assay using the LightCycler (LC) system to detect a Francisella-specific sequence of the outer membrane protein (fopA) gene. Twenty-five F. tularensis strains includin...
متن کاملA real time PCR assay on blood for diagnosis of invasive candidiasis in immunocompromised patient
Background and Purpose: Invasive candidiasis (IC) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with hematologic disorders and bone marrow transplant recipients. Rapid, specific and sensitive test for the timely accuracy in immunocompromised patients to reduce mortality rates and prevent IC progress is necessary. We established a real-time PCR assay on blood for the diagnosis an...
