Detection of Cytomegalovirus DNA in Human Specimens by LightCycler PCR
1 Nov 2000
Abstract excerpt
Detection of human cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA in clinical specimens is considered a cornerstone in the diagnosis of CMV disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate a newly designed LightCycler-based quantitative CMV PCR. Specimens of human origin (n = 200) were tested using the LightCycler PCR, the quantitative COBAS AMPLICOR CMV MONITOR (CACM) assay, and a qualitative in-house PCR assay for the presence of CMV...
