A TaqMan minor groove binder probe-based quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction for detection and quantification of chikungunya virus

Abstract excerpt

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-borne alphavirus with widespread distribution across the globe.Since 2016, CHIKV re-emerged in several countries including Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.A proper diagnostic tool for early diagnosis of CHIKV infection is crucial to facilitate patient management and control virus transmission at the earliest stage of outbreak.Therefore, a TaqMan minor groove binder...
