Multiplex, Quantitative, Real-Time PCR Assay for Cytomegalovirus and Human DNA
1 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
We created a multiplex, quantitative, real-time PCR assay that amplifies cytomegalovirus (CMV) and human DNA in the same reaction tube, allowing for a viral load determination that is normalized to measured human DNA. The assay targets a conserved region of the CMV DNA polymerase gene that is not affected by known drug resistance mutations. All 36 strains of CMV detected by culture or qualitative PCR in a...
