Assessment of Mycobacterial DNA in Cells and Tissues of Mycobacterial and Sarcoid Lesions
1 Jan 1996
Abstract excerpt
In this study we applied a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the detection and species-specific identification of mycobacteria to samples from patients with sarcoidosis and mycobacterial infections and from control patients. The PCR-technique is based on the amplification of mycobacterial DNA coding for 16S rRNA, which is present in all mycobacterial species, and on the additional sequencing of the PCR...
