Serotype-specific amplification of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi DNA by nested polymerase chain reaction.
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with nested primer pairs was used to diagnose scrub typhus and identify the Rickettsia tsutsugamushi serotype. The primer pairs used for PCR were designed on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of the gene that encodes the 56-kDa antigen. Serotype-specific primers were used in the second PCR amplification. Five serovariants, the Gilliam, Karp, Kato, Kawasaki, an...

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...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect Rickettsia tsutsugamushi-specific DNA in clinical specimens. The primer pair used for PCR was designed from the nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding the 56-kDa antigen of the Gilliam strain. Theses primers led to a 78-bp fragment by amplifying the genomic DNAs from five serovariants, i.e., the Gilliam, Karp, Kato, Kawasaki, and Kuroki strai...

متن کاملDiagnosis of typhus infection with Rickettsia tsutsugamushi by polymerase chain reaction.
Two sets of oligonucleotide primers were used to amplify the genomic DNA of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus (tsutsugamushi disease), by the polymerase chain reaction. Each set of primers amplified 538-bp and 109-bp products, representing part of a gene encoding a possible major 58-kDa immunogenic protein, from whole genomic DNA extracted from R. tsutsugamushi strai...
