Detection of Human Intestinal Catalase-Negative, Gram-Positive Cocci by rRNA-Targeted Reverse Transcription-PCR
26 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
An analytical system based on rRNA-targeted reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) for enumeration of catalase-negative, Gram-positive cocci was established. Subgroup- or species-specific primer sets targeting 16S or 23S rRNA from Enterococcus, Streptococcus, and Lactococcus were newly developed. The RT-qPCR method using these primers together with the previously reported primer sets specific for the...
