Standard Operating Procedure for Real-time PCR Detection and Identification of Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. holmesii using AB7500 v1 [PDF]
The appropriate use of clinically accurate diagnostic tests is essential for the detection of pertussis, a poorly controlled vaccine-preventable disease. The purpose of this study was to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of different diagnostic criteria including culture, multi-target polymerase chain reaction (PCR), anti-pertussis toxin IgG ...
