Title: Diagnostic multiplex PCR for toxin genotyping of Clostridium perfringens isolates. Author: Baums CG, Schotte U, Amtsberg G, Goethe R. Journal: Vet Microbiol; 2004 May 20; 100(1-2):11-6. PubMed ID: 15135508. Abstract: In this study we provide a protocol for genotyping Clostridium perfringens with a new multiplex PCR. This PCR enables reliable and specific detection of the toxin genes cpa, cpb, etx, iap, cpe and cpb2 from heat lysed bacterial suspensions. The efficiency of the protocol was demonstrated by typing C. perfringens reference strains and isolates from veterinary bacteriological routine diagnostic specimens.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
