Quantitative real-time PCR for Porphyromonas gingivalis and total bacteria.
Accurate quantitation of the number of cells of individual bacterial species in dental plaque samples is needed for understanding the bacterial etiology of periodontitis. Real-time PCR offers a sensitive, efficient, and reliable approach to quantitation. Using the TaqMan system we were able to determine both the amount of Porphyromonas gingivalis and the total number of bacterial cells present ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a 5' fluorogenic nuclease-based real-time PCR assay for quantitative detection of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis.
A 5' nuclease TaqMan PCR was developed for the quantitative detection of the periodontopathic bacteria Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. The relative numbers of bacteria were measured by the comparative threshold cycle method. This simplified method is a way of obtaining the relative quantities of these organisms from specimens and of monitoring the effect of th...
متن کاملComparison of real-time PCR and culture for detection of Porphyromonas gingivalis in subgingival plaque samples.
Porphyromonas gingivalis is a major pathogen in destructive periodontal disease in humans. Detection and quantification of this microorganism are relevant for diagnosis and treatment planning. The prevalence and quantity of P. gingivalis in subgingival plaque samples of periodontitis patients were determined by anaerobic culture and real-time PCR amplification of the 16S small-subunit rRNA gene...
متن کاملQuantitative Real-Time PCR
Unlike classical end-point analysis PCR, real-time PCR provides the data required for quantification of the target nucleic acid. The results can be expressed in absolute terms by reference to external quantified standards or in relative terms compared to another target sequence present within the sample. Absolute quantification requires that the efficiency of the amplification reaction is the s...
متن کاملReal time quantitative PCR.
We have developed a novel "real time" quantitative PCR method. The method measures PCR product accumulation through a dual-labeled fluorogenic probe (i.e., TaqMan Probe). This method provides very accurate and reproducible quantitation of gene copies. Unlike other quantitative PCR methods, real-time PCR does not require post-PCR sample handling, preventing potential PCR product carry-over conta...
