toxoplasmosis is a common and widespread infection in humans and many other species of warm–blooded animals. toxoplasma gondii-derived heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) may play an important role in the virulence of toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii). in the present study, t. gondii hsp70 was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (pcr) from the dna of the t. gondiitachyzoite rh strain through the use o...

in this study a nested-pcr assay was optimized for detection of two bvdv biotype of nadl strain. a part of 5' non-coding region of virus, 249 bp in size, was amplified in rt-pcr. pcr product was cloned in a ptz57r/t vector and sequencing results confirmed the specificity of the test. internal primers were designed and a 155 bp dna fragment was amplified in nested-pcr. the sensitivity of rt...

dna amplification using taq dna polymerase is one of the most widely used techniques in molecular biology and biotechnology. the aim of this study was to amplify the gene of this enzyme from a thermophilic bacteria called thermus aqauticus and clone it into a vector for future use. using specific primers the cdna of taq dna polymerase was amplified and ligated into the cloning vector ptz57r usi...

aroa is an important gene which produces aromatic amino acids essential for bacterial life. the sequence of this gene was shown to be different in bacteria, so the purpose of this study was sequencing of aroa gene in native e. coli o78: k80 to determine the putative differences between this strain and other e. coli o78: k80 strains in gene bank. pcr was used to amplify aroa gene in native e. co...

embryonic stem cells (escs) are pluripotent, self-renewing cells. these cells can be used in applications such as cell therapy, drug discovery, disease modelling, and the study of cellular differentiation. in this experimental study embryonic stem cells cultured in the laboratory and were amplified. total rna was extracted from cells and converted to cdna by reverse transcription-polymerase cha...

introduction butyrivibrio fibrisolvens strains are presently recognized as the major butyrate-producing bacteria found in the rumen and digestive track of many animals and also in the human gut. in this study we reported the development of two dna based techniques, quantitative competitive (qc) pcr and absolute based real-time pcr, for enumerating butyrivibrio fibrisolvens strains. despite the ...
