16S rDNA PCR and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis; a single generic test for detecting and differentiating Mycoplasma species
12 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Diagnosis of Mycoplasma infection is normally based on culture and serological tests, which can be time-consuming and laborious. A number of specific PCRs have been developed but to date there has not been a single generic test capable of detecting and differentiating mycoplasmas to a species level. This report describes the development of a new diagnostic test based on PCR of the 16S rRNA gene with...
