Early Detection of Typhoid by Polymerase Chain Reaction

1 Jul 1999

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Typhoid is a common problem in developing countries. Cultivation of bacteria and serology (especially Widal test) give unacceptable levels of false-negative and false-positive results, respectively. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this study, a recently introduced polymerase chain reaction-based technique (which has 100% specificity for Salmonella typhi) was compared with blood culture and Widal test during...
