Development of a viability real time PCR assay for Bordetella pertussis, B parapertussis and B holmesii
2025-11-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Real time PCR provides rapid and accurate laboratory confirmation of clinically suspected pertussis and pertussis like illness (PLI). However, it does not inform the viability as it detects bacterial DNA from both viable and degraded bacterial cells. We report development of platinum based viability real time PCR assays for Bordetella pertussis, B . parapertussis and B . holmesii which ca...
