Rapid detection of <i>Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Prevotella intermedia</i> and <i>Porphyromona gingivalis</i> by multiplex PCR

Abstract excerpt

The identification of specific periodontal pathogens by conventional methods, mainly anaerobic cultivation, is difficult, time consuming and even sometimes unreliable. Therefore, a multiplex PCR method for simultaneous detection of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (A.a.), Porphyromona gingivalis (P.g.) and Prevotella intermedia (P.i.) was developed for rapid and easy identification of these specific bacterial...
