Real-time polymerase chain reaction for the qualitative and quantitative detection of<i>Mycoplasma gallisepticum</i>
1 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity and the detection limit of a real-time polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) developed for the qualitative and quantitative detection of Mycoplasma gallisepticum. No cross-reactivity was observed with DNA from other important avian mycoplasmas, including Mycoplasma synoviae and Mycoplasma meleagridis. However, the Q-PCR could not distinguish between M....
