HIGH SENSITIVE PCR METHOD FOR DETECTION OF PATHOGENIC Leptospira spp. IN PARAFFIN-EMBEDDED TISSUES
This study describes the development and application of a new PCR assay for the specific detection of pathogenic leptospires and its comparison with a previously reported PCR protocol. New primers were designed for PCR optimization and evaluation in artificially-infected paraffin-embedded tissues. PCR was then applied to post-mortem, paraffin-embedded samples, followed by amplicon sequencing. T...
متن کاملFirst isolation of Mycobacterium spp. in Mullus spp. in Turkey
Ichthyozoonotic Mycobacterium spp. poses health risks both to fish and humans. In this study, the presence of ichthyozoonotic Mycobacterium spp. was investigated in red mullet (Mullus barbatus barbatus) and surmullet (Mullus surmuletus), widely caught species in the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea. A total of 208 fish samples, provided from fishermen of Mersin province (Turkey) were studied. U...
متن کاملAn Efficient Method For DNA Extraction From Paraffin Wax Embedded Tissues For PCR Amplification Of Human And Viral DNA
Background and Objective: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues are a valuable source of DNA for molecular studies. We designed and optimized an efficient procedure for DNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Materials and Methods: Seventy three blocks of cervical paraffin-embedded tissues were investigated. DNA was extracted using 45 minutes boiling in alkaline sol...
متن کاملProteomic analysis of RCL2 paraffin-embedded tissues
Histopathological diagnosis in most of the world's hospitals is based upon formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. Although this standard fixation and embedding procedure keeps the tissue in excellent form for morphological and immunohistological analysis, FFPE is inappropriate for nucleic acids and protein studies. We investigated the potential value of RCL2, a new non-toxic fixat...
متن کاملComparison of histologic stains for use in PCR analysis of microdissected, paraffin-embedded tissues.
We evaluated the effect of six different histologic stains on the productivity of PCR amplification of DNA isolated from paraffin-embedded tissue samples. The tissue was collected from glass slides by microdissection techniques, whereby tiny portions of tissue are visually identified through a microscope and selectively resected for subsequent DNA extraction and PCR amplification. We found that...
