Comparing Microsporidia-targeting primers for environmental DNA sequencing
Metabarcoding is a powerful tool to detect classical, and well-known “long-branch” Microsporidia in environmental samples. Several primer pairs were developed to target these unique microbial parasites, the majority of which remain undetected when using ...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a powerful molecular biology assay for gene detection and quantification. Conventional DNA primers for PCR often suffer from poor sensitivity in specific gene detection.

Comparison of different primes for PCR-based diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis
Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze different primers that are commonly used in epidemiological studies for the detection of Leishmania DNA by PCR, and to compare them to the conventional direct parasite search for American cutaneous ...

Chloroplast-specific universal primers and their uses in plant studies
Universal (consensus) primers are those primers that have the ability to amplify the targeted region of DNA across a broad range of individuals in a certain group of organisms. In plants, such universal primers have been designed to target regions in the

Using long ssDNA polynucleotides to amplify STRs loci in degraded DNA samples. [PDF]
Obtaining informative short tandem repeat (STR) profiles from degraded DNA samples is a challenging task usually undermined by locus or allele dropouts and peak-high imbalances observed in capillary electrophoresis (CE) electropherograms, especially for ...

Composition adulteration in a product is still a serious problem. For that we need a DNA-based test method that is fast, specific and simple. In this study, a rapid test technique with the loop-mediated isothermal amplification method was applied to ...

We developed a set of universal PCR primers (MiFish-U/E) for metabarcoding environmental DNA (eDNA) from fishes. Primers were designed using aligned whole mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences from 880 species, supplemented by partial mitogenome ...

16S rRNA amplicon sequencing or, more recently, metatranscriptomic analysis are currently the only preferred methods for microbial profiling of samples containing a predominant ratio of human to bacterial DNA. However, due to the off-target amplification

DNA metabarcoding is a technique used to survey biodiversity in many ecological settings, but there are doubts about whether it can provide quantitative results, that is, the proportions of each species in the mixture as opposed to a species list.
