Multiplex PCR Targeting<i>tpi</i>(Triose Phosphate Isomerase),<i>tcdA</i>(Toxin A), and<i>tcdB</i>(Toxin B) Genes for Toxigenic Culture of<i>Clostridium difficile</i>
1 Dec 2004
Abstract excerpt
A multiplex PCR toxigenic culture approach was designed for simultaneous identification and toxigenic type characterization of Clostridium difficile isolates. Three pairs of primers were designed for the amplification of (i) a species-specific internal fragment of the tpi (triose phosphate isomerase) gene, (ii) an internal fragment of the tcdB (toxin B) gene, and (iii) an internal fragment of the tcdA (toxin A)...
