Diagnosis and Assessment of Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) Infection by Quantitative PCR Assay: Differentiation of Congo Basin and West African MPXV Strains

Japanese Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2008
Human monkeypox, an infectious disease caused by monkeypox virus (MPXV), is endemic to western and central Africa. A LightCycler quantitative PCR (LC-qPCR) system was developed for the diagnosis of this disease, targeting the A-type inclusion body gene (ATI gene) of MPXV.
