PCR is known to be the most sensitive method for diagnosing Trichomonas vaginalis infections. This study aimed to compare the sensitivity of a PCR assay for trichomoniasis (HY-PCR) developed in Hanyang University with the use of a Seeplex Ace Detection Kit®, using urine collected from four Korean men with prostatic disease. Overall, HY-PCR was more sensitive than the Seeplex Kit. The use of Chelex 100 is recommended for DNA isolation in order to increase the sensitivity of the PCR test.
已知聚合酶链反应(PCR)是诊断阴道毛滴虫感染最敏感的方法。本研究旨在比较汉阳大学开发的用于滴虫病的PCR检测法(HY-PCR)与使用Seeplex Ace检测试剂盒®的灵敏度,使用从四名患有前列腺疾病的韩国男性收集的尿液。总体而言,HY-PCR比Seeplex试剂盒更敏感。建议使用Chelex 100进行DNA分离,以提高PCR检测的灵敏度。
