Real-time detection of blaKPC in clinical samples and surveillance specimens.
A real-time PCR assay was developed targeting the bla(KPC) responsible for Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-mediated carbapenem resistance and was validated for testing colonies or enrichment broth cultures. The assay accurately detects KPC-containing strains with high analytical specificity and sensitivity.
متن کاملDetection and enumeration of Cryptosporidium oocysts in environmental water samples by Real-time PCR assay
Introduction: The protozoan parasite, Cryptosporidium Spp., widely spreads in both raw and drinking waters. It is the causative agents of waterborne diarrhea and gastroenteritis in the world. In the present study, a molecular assay was used for the detection and quantification of Cryptosporidium oocysts in environmental water samples. Materials and methods: Thirty surface water samples wer...
متن کاملSpecific and sensitive detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in clinical specimens by real-time PCR.
Early diagnosis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections is important with regard to patients' health and infectivity. We report the development of a specific and sensitive TaqMan assay for the detection of N. gonorrhoeae in clinical samples. The target sequence is a 76-bp fragment of the 5' untranslated region of the opa genes that encode opacity proteins. A panel of 448 well-defined N. gonorrhoeae...
متن کاملEvaluation of a new set of Real-Time PCR for Brucella detection within human and animal samples
A quantitative TaqMn Real-Time PCR assay was developed and its diagnostic value on human serum and livestock samples were evaluated. Brucella species could be distributed through communities as a biological agent. Rapid detection of biological threat agents is critical for timely therapeutic administration. Quantitative real-time PCR provides a rapid, sensitive and specific tool for molecular i...
متن کاملComparison of six real-time PCR assays for qualitative detection of cytomegalovirus in clinical specimens.
In this study, we compared the performance of six real-time PCR assays for the qualitative detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) in clinical samples other than plasma. Two hundred specimens (respiratory [n = 72], urine [n = 67], cerebrospinal fluid [CSF] [n = 25], tissue [n = 18], amniotic fluid [n = 10], and bone marrow [n = 8]) submitted for routine testing by CMV real-time PCR analyte-specific ...
