Bacterial 16S rDNA polymerase chain reaction in the detection of intra‐amniotic infection

1 Jul 1996

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Bacterial polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect early subclinical intraamhiotic infection. We used universal primers which amplify a DNA fragment of 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) from all known bacteria and sequenced the positive samples to identify the bacterial species. DESIGN: Transabdominally obtained amniotic fluid samples from 20 pregnant women with prelabour rupture of the fetal...
