PROBES FOR THE SPECIFIC DETECTION OF CRYPTOSPORIDIUM PARVUM

Citation:

Lindquist, H. PROBES FOR THE SPECIFIC DETECTION OF CRYPTOSPORIDIUM PARVUM. Water Research 31(10):2668-2671, (1997).

Description:

A probe set, consisting of two synthetic oligonucleotides each tagged with a fluorescent reporter molecule, has been developed for specific detection of Cryptosporidium parvum.Each probe strand detects ribosomal RNA from a range of isolates of this species, and the combination is designed to allow detection of all isolates for which the rRNA sequence has been published.This represents the first use of 6-carboxyfluorescein phosphoramadite as a label for fluorescent in situ hybridization.
