Nested real-time PCR for hepatitis A detection

Aims:  The hepatitis A virus (HAV) is one of the most important human foodborne pathogens causing a number of worldwide outbreaks each year. The detection of HAV in food samples remains a complex issue, because commonly used detection tools, such as conventional or even real-time PCR assays, are often unable to detect HAV with sufficient sensitivity. The aims of this study were to develop highly sensitive and specific nested real-time PCR (NRT-PCR)-based method for HAV detection in food and to compare it with currently available methods.
Methods and Results:  By combining conventional PCR, nested PCR and real-time PCR techniques, we have developed a specific NRT-PCR assay for the detection of HAV. The procedure involves two consecutive PCRs, the first of which is performed as a conventional RT-PCR using primers specific for HAV 5' noncoding region. The second reaction involves a real-time PCR using a nested primer pair specific for the first PCR product and a TaqMan probe.
Conclusions:  We have developed a novel NRT-PCR method capable of detecting as little as 0·2 PFU of HAV, which is significantly more sensitive than any other PCR technique tested in our system.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  NRT-PCR provides a potentially useful method for detecting HAV at extremely low levels, as frequently found in food samples, and can be potentially adopted as a regulatory method to ensure food safety.

Quantification of PCR products by phosphate measurement

Various techniques for quantification of PCR are available. Most frequently, the densitometric intensities of ethidium bromide-stained PCR products separated in gels are compared after normalizing to the levels of housekeeping gene products such as β-actin. More precise, but extremely time consuming, is the technique of competitive PCR. Newer methods, such as tracking amplification in real-time, have high start-up and maintenance costs (e.g., TaqMan, Applied Biosystems; LightCycler, Roche; I-Cycler, Bio-Rad). Here, I describe an alternative, simple technique to quantify PCR products by determining the entire phosphate released during PCR. The method can be performed using common laboratory equipment, and the reagents needed are extremely cheap. The method is validated by measuring the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase gene expression in cell culture and comparing the results with data obtained by LightCycler experiments and RNase protection assays.

Development of a broad-range 16S rDNA real-time PCR for the diagnosis of septic arthritis in children

The broad-range PCR has been successfully developed to search for fastidious, slow-growing or uncultured bacteria, and is mostly used when an empirical antibiotic treatment has already been initiated. The technique generally involves standard PCR targeting the gene coding for 16S ribosomal RNA, and includes a post-PCR visualisation step on agarose gel which is a potential source of cross-over contamination. In addition, interpretation of the presence of amplified products on gels can be difficult. We then developed a new SYBR Green-based, universal real-time PCR assay targeting the gene coding for 16S ribosomal RNA, coupled with sequencing of amplified products. The real-time PCR assay was evaluated on 94 articular fluid samples collected from children hospitalised for suspicion of septic arthritis, as compared to the results obtained with bacterial cultures and conventional broad-range PCR. DNA extraction was performed with the automated MagNa Pure system. We could detect DNA from various bacterial pathogens including fastidious bacteria (Kingella kingae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Salmonella spp, Staphylococcus aureus) from 23% of cases of septic arthritis giving negative culture results. The real-time technique was easier to interpret and allowed to detect four more cases than conventional PCR. PCR based molecular techniques appear to be essential to perform in case of suspicion of septic arthritis, provided the increase of the diagnosed bacterial etiologies. Real-time PCR technique is a sensitive and reliable technique, which can replace conventional PCR for clinical specimens with negative bacterial culture.     

A nested real-time PCR assay has an increased sensitivity suitable for detection of viruses in aerosol studies

Aims:  Influenza is commonly spread by infectious aerosols; however, detection of viruses in aerosols is not sensitive enough to confirm the characteristics of virus aerosols. The aim of this study was to develop an assay for respiratory viruses sufficiently sensitive to be used in epidemiological studies.
Method:  A two-step, nested real-time PCR assay was developed for MS2 bacteriophage, and for influenza A and B, parainfluenza 1 and human respiratory syncytial virus. Outer primer pairs were designed to nest each existing real-time PCR assay. The sensitivities of the nested real-time PCR assays were compared to those of existing real-time PCR assays. Both assays were applied in an aerosol study to compare their detection limits in air samples.
Conclusions:  The nested real-time PCR assays were found to be several logs more sensitive than the real-time PCR assays, with lower levels of virus detected at lower Ct values. The nested real-time PCR assay successfully detected MS2 in air samples, whereas the real-time assay did not.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  The sensitive assays for respiratory viruses will permit further research using air samples from naturally generated virus aerosols. This will inform current knowledge regarding the risks associated with the spread of viruses through aerosol transmission.     

Enumeration and detection of acetic acid bacteria by real-time PCR and nested PCR

Acetic acid bacteria play a negative role in wine making because they increase the volatile acidity of wines. They can survive in the various phases of alcoholic fermentation and it is very important to control their presence and ulterior development. The main objective of the present work is to test fast, sensitive and reliable techniques such as real-time PCR (rt-PCR) and nested PCR for enumerating and detecting the presence of this bacterial group without plating. Primers were designed on the basis of the available 16S rRNA gene sequences and tested successfully with reference acetic acid bacteria strains. The usefulness of rt-PCR was demonstrated by comparing the results with traditional techniques (colony and microscope counting). The results were similar with all the techniques. Optimized rt-PCR enabled numbers between 10(7) and 10(1) cells mL(-1) to be enumerated, while nested PCR detected less than 10 cells mL(-1). Although this latter technique cannot be used for enumeration, it has several advantages in routine laboratory analysis.
