Polymerase chain reaction—identification of <i>Dirofilaria repens</i> and <i>Dirofilaria immitis</i>

1 Dec 1996

Abstract excerpt

On the basis of known DNA sequences of Dirofilaria repens and D. immitis we designed specific primers for the amplification by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) of the DNA from the two species. The PCR-based identification was found to be unambiguous and allowed specific diagnosis of microfilariae in blood samples, of developing larvae in the mosquito vector and of immature adults in bioptic material, overcoming...
