American Society for Microbiology, Washington, DC, 77(18):6570-6578, (2011).
Impact/Purpose:
The method, referred to as rapid-viability (RV)-PCR, uses the change in cycle threshold after incubation to detect the presence of live organisms. In this article, we report a novel RV-PCR method for detection of live, virulent Bacillus anthracis.
