Development of a Differential Multiplex PCR Assay for Equine Herpesvirus 1 and 4 as a Diagnostic Tool
1 Jun 2000
Abstract excerpt
In this study, a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedure was developed for differentiation of strains and field isolates of equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) and type 4 (EHV-4). Specific oli-gonucleotide primers were combined to amplify the thymidine kinase (TK) gene region of EHV-1 and EHV-4, which would yield fragments of different lengths for each virus in the same amplification reaction. The...
