Abstract excerpt
A real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assay was designed for the simultaneous identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and its ciprofloxacin susceptibility status. A SYBR green-based multiplex RT-PCR format was used; it comprised two different forward primers and a common reverse primer to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in gyrA of N. gonorrhoeae The primer pairs were evaluated for their sensitivity and...
