Title: Enhanced detection of enteroviruses in clinical samples by reverse transcription-PCR using complementary locked primer technology. Author: Hong J, Kang B, Kim A, Hwang S, Lee S, Kim J, Lee HY, Kang SH, Cheon DS. Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2010 Feb; 48(2):615-6. PubMed ID: 19940056. Abstract: To increase detection sensitivity, we modified primers using complementary locked primer (CLP) technology. The sensitivity of the reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) with CLP-modified primers was 10- to 100-fold higher than that of RT-PCR without these primers. CLP-modified primers can increase sensitivity, providing a widely accessible method for molecular diagnosis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
