Highly sensitive detection of Staphylococcus aureus α-Hemolysin protein (Hla or α-toxin) by Apta-qPCR
2024-04-08
Abstract excerpt
α-toxin of Staphylococcus aureus is belonging to pore-forming toxins (PFTs) which can lyse red and white blood cells except neutrophils. In addition to existence of the hla gene in the majority of S. aureus strains (about 95%), higher expression exert enhanced pathogenicity to the bacteria. Various methods such as aptamer-based ones could serve for detection of the toxin. In the current study, an apta-qPCR assay i...
