Detection of stx1, stx2, and eae genes of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli using SYBR Green in a real-time polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract:

:We report a multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction method for detecting enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) from strains or stool specimens. This assay detected the virulence genes stx1, stx2, and eae, without the use of probes. The method, which was validated on a collection of 143 EHEC strains, is simple, rapid, cost-effective, and sensitive.

  • Rapid detection of coinfections by Trichomonas vaginalis, Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma urealyticum by a new multiplex polymerase chain reaction.

    abstract::We developed a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (M-PCR) assay to simultaneously detect Trichomonas vaginalis, Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma urealyticum. The test is extremely specific and has a sensitivity of 10 cells for T. vaginalis and U. urealyticum and of 1 cell for M. hominis. The technique was validated...
