The recent publication of representative genomic sequences of GBV-C has permitted the selection of PCR primers for detection of GBV-C in clinical samples by PCR techniques. Traditional amplification methodologies which couple reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Southern blot detection are slow, cumbersome, and can be technique dependent. This has hampered studies to determine the clinical significance of GBV-C. We report the selection of highly conserved PCR primers and a probe useful for semi-automated RT-PCR using the Abbott LCx system. This adaptation of the LCx system expands its capabilities to include the detection of RNA by RT-PCR, in addition to DNA detection by ligase chain reaction (LCR).

D015342 DNA Probes Species- or subspecies-specific DNA (including COMPLEMENTARY DNA; conserved genes, whole chromosomes, or whole genomes) used in hybridization studies in order to identify microorganisms, to measure DNA-DNA homologies, to group subspecies, etc. The DNA probe hybridizes with a specific mRNA, if present. Conventional techniques used for testing for the hybridization product include dot blot assays, Southern blot assays, and DNA:RNA hybrid-specific antibody tests. Conventional labels for the DNA probe include the radioisotope labels 32P and 125I and the chemical label biotin. The use of DNA probes provides a specific, sensitive, rapid, and inexpensive replacement for cell culture techniques for diagnosing infections.
