Rapid reverse transcription-PCR detection of hepatitis C virus RNA in serum by using the TaqMan fluorogenic detection system
1 Dec 1996
Abstract excerpt
We describe the application of a new fluorogenic probe-based PCR assay (TaqMan; Perkin Elmer Corp./Applied Biosystems, Foster City, Calif.) for the detection of hepatitis C virus RNA in serum and plasma. This assay allows for the direct direction of specific PCR products within minutes of completion of the PCR by monitoring the increase in fluorescence of a dye-labeled oligonucleotide probe. We evaluated this...
