Selection and Validation of Reference Genes for RT-qPCR Analysis in Aegilops tauschii (Coss.) under Different Abiotic Stresses

Aegilops tauschii (Coss.) is an aggressive and severe annual grass weed in China. Its DD genome is a wealthy supply of genetic materials and performs higher beneath totally different abiotic stress circumstances (salinity, drought, temperature, and so on.). Reverse-transcribed quantitative polymerase chain response (RT-qPCR) is a dependable method for reference gene choice and validation. This work…

Development of multiplex TaqMan qPCR for simultaneous detection and differentiation of eight common swine viral and bacterial pathogens

It’s laborious to diagnose the infections of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine circovirus sort 2 (PCV2), and Suid herpesvirus 1 (SuHV-1) due to the same scientific signs in piglets. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Streptococcus suis (S. suis), Salmonella choleraesuis (S. choleraesuis, serotype: 6,7:c:1,5), and Escherichia coli (E.…

In vitro evaluation of the effect of mutations in primer binding sites on detection of SARS-CoV-2 by RT-qPCR

Quite a few RT-qPCR assays for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 have been printed and are listed by the WHO as advisable assays. Moreover, quite a few business assays with undisclosed primer and probe sequences are available on the market. Because the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic progresses, the virus accrues mutations, which in some circumstances – as seen…

A novel multiplex qPCR method for assessing the comparative lengths of telomeres

Background: The comparative size of telomeres is taken into account to be associated to ailments corresponding to most cancers, growing older, and cardiovascular ailments. qPCR is presently one of many primary strategies for detecting telomere size. Nevertheless, because of the distinctive sequence of telomeres (extremely repetitive six-base sequence), it’s tough to design primers and probes to…

Validation of fetal microchimerism after pregnancy in the ovine using qPCR

Fetal microchimerism has been detected in maternal tissues of people and rodents throughout and after being pregnant. Research specializing in fetal DNA switch to maternal tissues in home animals are restricted, particularly in sheep. Fetal ram DNA was noticed within the maternal circulation throughout being pregnant, however it isn’t recognized if this chimerism persists in…

Ultra-sensitive AAV capsid detection by immunocapture-based qPCR following factor VIII gene transfer

Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene remedy vectors are replication-incompetent and thus pose minimal threat for horizontal transmission or launch into the surroundings. In research with AAV5-FVIII-SQ (valoctocogene roxaparvovec), an investigational gene remedy for hemophilia A, residual vector DNA was detectable in blood, secreta, and excreta, nevertheless it remained unclear how lengthy structurally intact AAV5 vector capsids…

RT-qPCR Diagnostics: The “Drosten” SARS-CoV-2 Assay Paradigm

The reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is an established tool for the diagnosis of RNA pathogens. Its potential for automation has caused it to be used as a presence/absence diagnostic tool even when RNA quantification is not required. This technology has been pushed to the forefront of public awareness by the COVID-19 pandemic,…

Clinical performance and accuracy of a qPCR-based SARS-CoV-2 mass-screening workflow for healthcare-worker surveillance using pooled self-sampled gargling solutions: a cross-sectional study

Introduction: The large number of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infections necessitates general screening of employees. We evaluate the performance of a SARS-CoV-2 screening program in asymptomatic healthcare-workers (HCW), utilizing self-sampled gargling-solution and sample pooling for RT-qPCR. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional retrospective study to collect real-life data on the performance of a screening-workflow based on automated-pooling and high-throughput qPCR…
