Detection and Identification of <i>Mycoplasma conjunctivae</i> in Infectious Keratoconjunctivitis by PCR. Based on the16S. rRNA. Gene
1 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
A specific PCR assay based on unique sequences of the rrs genes (16S rRNA) of Mycoplasma conjunctivae was developed for direct detection and identification of this pathogen from clinical material. DNA from eye swabs was amplified after a simple lysis step by either a single PCR with the M. conjunctivae specific primer pair McoR1 and McoF1, or by a nested PCR with the Mycoplasma genus specific primer pair...
