Quantitative PCR Assessments of Bacterial Species in Women with and without Bacterial Vaginosis
20 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
Knowledge of the abundance of bacterial species in vaginal communities will help us to better understand their role in health and disease. However, progress in this field has been limited because quantifying bacteria in natural specimens is an arduous process. We developed quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays to facilitate assessments of bacterial abundance in vaginal specimens and evaluated the utility of...
