Rapid Quantification and Differentiation of Human Polyomavirus DNA in Undiluted Urine from Patients after Bone Marrow Transplantation
1 Oct 2000
Abstract excerpt
A combined PCR assay was developed for the detection and typing of human polyomavirus (huPoV) in clinical samples, consisting of (i) a qualitative seminested PCR assay (snPCR) to discriminate between huPoV BK and JC and (ii) a high-throughput, quantitative TaqMan PCR assay (TM-PCR) for the general detection of huPoV. The TM-PCR detects huPoV DNA in a linear range from 10(7) to 10(1) copies per assay. In...
