Sensitive and specific detection of strains of Japanese encephalitis virus using a one‐step TaqMan RT‐PCR technique
13 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
A rapid, sensitive, and accurate laboratory diagnostic test is needed for distinguishing Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) from other diseases featuring similar clinical symptoms and also for preventing potential outbreaks. In this study, a TaqMan reverse transcription (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was developed for rapid detection and quantification of the viral RNA of various JEV strains. A...
