Validated H5 Eurasian Real-Time Reverse Transcriptase–Polymerase Chain Reaction and Its Application in H5N1 Outbreaks in 2005–2006
1 Mar 2007
Abstract excerpt
Real time reverse transcriptase (RRT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of Eurasian H5 avian influenza virus (AIV) isolates was adapted from an existing protocol, optimized, and validated using a number of genetically diverse H5 isolates (n = 51). These included 34 "Asian lineage" H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses (2004-2006), plus 12 other H5 isolates from poultry outbreaks...
