Use of uniplex polymerase chain reaction & evaluation of multiplex PCR in the rapid diagnosis of viral retinitis
|
Background & objectives: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been known to be a rapid and accurate diagnostic test for causative viruses of viral retinitis, but cost is the limiting factor. In the present study an attempt was made to standardize a multiplex PCR (mPCR) on intraocular specimens from patients with viral retinitis for the detection of one or more viruses [herpes simplex virus (HSV), varicella zoster virus (VZV) or cytomegalovirus (CMV)] in order to reduce the period of time required for uniplex polymerase chain reaction (uPCR).
Methods: Using the uniplex PCR (uPCR) primers, a ...
