A more reliable PCR for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in clinical sam...
Kox, L.F.; Rhienthong, D.; Miranda, A.M.; Udomsantisuk, N.; Ellis, K.; van Leeuwen, J.; van Heusden, S.; Kuijper, S.; Kolk, A.H.Diagnostic techniques based on PCR have two major problems: false-positive reactions due to contamination with DNA fragments from previous PCRs (amplicons) and false-negative reactions caused by inhibitors that interfere with the PCR. We have improved our previously reported PCR based on the amplification of a fragment of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex-specific insertion element IS6110 with respect to b...
