Abstract excerpt
A rapid and sensitive reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay incorporating TaqMan probes has been developed that can distinguish among the six established rabies and rabies-related virus genotypes. TaqMan probes were designed and validated against 106 rabies and rabies-related virus isolates, one isolate of the Australian bat Lyssaviruses (genotype 7), and 18 other non-rabies viruses...
