Adapting a conventional pcr assay for Toxoplasma gondii detection to real-time quantitative pcr including a competitive internal control
We have developed a quantitative PCR assay (LightCycler®) using the pair of primers JW58 and JW59 for the detection of the 35- fold repeated B1 gene of Toxoplasma gondii. This real-time PCR, using fluorescence resonance energy transfert (FRET) hybridization probes, allows the quantification of T. go...
