Background: Fast and precise detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in clinical samples subsequent quarantine are two critical factors preventing virus transmission distribution through the community. The false-negative result is a major problem because kind sample (swab sample), sampling error, sensitivity PCR test, which can be reduced by much more sensitive test such as nested PCR. Objectives: This stu...

background and aims: certification programs of plant propagating materials rely on faster, cheaper and more importantly sensitive and reliable methods for detection of systemic pathogens as indicated in national and/or international health standards of plant propagating materials. reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) has been documented as an alternative assay for certificat...

conclusions the results of the present study showed that in comparison with previously published primer sets, p. aeruginosa infection can be diagnosed with higher sensitivity and specificity by the conventional pcr assay using the newly designed primers. it was also shown that the results of the pcr assay on clinical samples of severe infections became positive much earlier than the results of ...

quick identification of vibrio cholerae in epidemics is   important, on the other hand; conventional methods are time-consuming and   costly. the aim of this study was to develop a rapid, inexpensive and high   sensitivity method for quick identification of vibrio cholerae . for   this purpose we designed a pcr detection based on magnetic nanoparticles for   identification of bacterial dna by p...

background: canine parvovirus (cpv) infection is one ofthe most common causes of infectious gastroenteritis in dogs andis a highly contagious, often fatal disease. the original virus(cpv type 2) has had some mutations since its emergence andnew variants (cpv-2a, 2b and 2c) have been reported from manycountries all around the world. early diagnosis and treatment canprofoundly affect the disease ...

Introduction: This study was intended to determine the presence and distribution of Listeria monocytogenes in various meat and dairy products from Qazvin Province by culture followed by biochemical and morphological assays. The identity of the isolates was further obtained by amplification of prfA gene in bacteria isolates. This gene is a transcriptional activator of virulence gene ex...

marek’s disease (md) is a lymphoproliferative disease of chickens characterized by lymphocyticinfiltration of various organs. the present study was an attempt to use polymerase chain reaction (pcr) tooptimize a rapid and reliable assay for detection of mdv genome. detection of serotype 1 of mdv (mdv-1)was confirmed by presence of a 200 bp dna fragment as a pcr product. differentiation of mdv-1 ...

the opportunistic pathogen c.albicans is able to cause disseminated infections in immunocompromised patients. microbiological methods for the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis have many problems including low sensitivity, requirement to invasive clinical sampling such as biopsies or multiple blood cultures and need to expertise laboratory stuff. since pcr has proven to be a powerful tool in the...

background: weissellicin 110 is the only bacteriocin reported in weissella cibaria up to now. this bacteriocin represents several unique features. this is the first report on the gene sequence that encodes for the bacteriocin.objectives: providing a rapid detection method to isolate the weissellicin 110 encoding gene and determination of the bacteriocin distribution were the objectives.material...
