Development and Single Laboratory Evaluation of a Refined and specific Real-time PCR Detection Method, Using Mitochondrial Primers (Mit1C), for the Detection of Cyclospora cayetanensis in Produce

Regulatory methods for detection of the foodborne protozoan parasite Cyclospora cayetanensis must be specific and sensitive. To that end, we designed and evaluated (in a single laboratory validation) a novel and improved primer/probe combination (Mit1C) for real-time PCR detection of C. cayetanensis...
