Background and Objectives: Traditionally, diagnosis of the agents of infectious diseases is based on conventional or phenotypic methods. Due to the lack of growth of some infectious agents, these methods are very difficult or impossible for diagnosis of some bacteria. The advent of molecular techniques has more or less influences on the detection of microbial infections. This article addresses ...

Background and Objectives: Salmonella typhi, Bacillus anthracis, and Yersinia pestis are potent human pathogenic bacteria that cause typhoid fever, anthrax, and plague,respectively. The classic microbiological methods for detection and identification of these agents are laborious and time consuming.Therefore, developing an accurate method for rapid detection of these potent human pathogens is i...
