Applied genomics: data mining reveals species-specific malaria diagnostic targets more sensitive than 18S rRNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Accurate and rapid diagnosis of malaria infections is crucial for implementing species-appropriate treatment and saving lives. Molecular diagnostic tools are the most accurate and sensitive method of detecting Plasmodium, differentiating between ...

Development of Nested-PCR Assay to Detect Acidovorax citrulli, a Causal Agent of Bacterial Fruit Blotch at Cucurbitaceae

open access: yesResearch in Plant Disease, 2015
The specific and sensitive nested-PCR method to detect Acidovorax citrulli, a causal agent of bacterial fruit blotch on cucurbitaceae, was developed. PCR primers were designed from the draft genome sequence which was obtained with the Next Generation ...

An optimized one-tube, semi-nested PCR assay for Paracoccidioides brasiliensis detection

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2013
Introduction Herein, we report a one-tube, semi-nested-polymerase chain reaction (OTsn-PCR) assay for the detection of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Methods We developed the OTsn-PCR assay for the detection of P. brasiliensis in clinical specimens and

One-Tube Nested Real-Time PCR Assay for Rapid Screening of Porcine Cytomegalovirus in Clinical Samples

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is a pathogen that must be removed from pigs for use as organ donors in xenotransplantation. Recently, it has been found that when donor pigs are infected with PCMV, a pig-to-non-human-primate xenotransplantation lower ...

Nested PCR Analysis of Plasmodium Parasites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In the natural and untreated intermediate hosts, Plasmodium infections are maintained for extended and often lifelong periods. Parasitemia generally reaches its highest level in the first peak after inoculation, and only rises thereafter during increasingly brief and interspersed episodes. As the host acquires tolerance to higher numbers of multiplying

Evaluation of Nested PCR in Diagnosis of Typhoid Fever [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2005
ABSTRACT In this study, nested PCR using H1-d primers, which is specific for Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi, was compared to blood culture and the single-tube Widal test. Results indicate that nested PCR can be used as a gold standard to determine the cutoff titer of the Widal ...

A new PCR-based approach indicates the range of Clonorchis sinensis now extends to central Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Differentiation of the fish-borne trematodes belonging to the Opisthorchiidae, Heterophyidae and Lecithodendriidae is important from a clinical and epidemiological perspective, yet it is impossible to do using conventional coprological techniques, as the
