Comparative Evaluation of Standard RT-PCR Assays and Commercial Real-Time RT-PCR Kits for Detection of Lassa Virus
28 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
Lassa virus (LASV) is a significant human pathogen causing hemorrhagic fever in West Africa. Increased traveling around the world raises the risk of imported cases to other countries. The high nucleotide diversity of LASV strains clustered with geographic location complicates the development of appropriate diagnostic assays. In this study, we showed that the GPC reverse transcription (RT)-PCR/2007 assay and the...
