Rapid Detection of B Virus (Herpesvirus Simiae) DNA by Polymerase Chain Reaction

Abstract excerpt

Rapid diagnosis of B virus (herpesvirus simiae) infection in humans followed by early antiviral treatment is essential for the patient's survival. To improve laboratory diagnosis of B virus infections, a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based test using synthetic oligonucleotide primers and probe was developed to detect B virus DNA in clinical samples. After the specificity of the PCR was assessed for detection of...
