New Real-Time Quantitative PCR Procedure for Quantification of Bifidobacteria in Human Fecal Samples
1 Jul 2004
Abstract excerpt
The application of a real-time quantitative PCR method (5' nuclease assay), based on the use of a probe labeled at its 5' end with a stable, fluorescent lanthanide chelate, for the quantification of human fecal bifidobacteria was evaluated. The specificities of the primers and the primer-probe combination were evaluated by conventional PCR and real-time PCR, respectively. The results obtained by real-time PCR...
