Direct and rapid detection of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae DNA in animals by PCR
1 Jun 1994
Abstract excerpt
Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a gram-positive rod capable of causing erysipelas in swine. To establish a method for specifically detecting E. rhusiopathiae for practical applications, such as for the inspection of slaughterhouses, the feasibility of using primers derived from the DNA sequence coding for 16S rRNA in a PCR-specific detection system was investigated. Oligonucleotide primers were designed to...
