ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo optimize the condition of multiple fluorescence quantitative PCR and establish a new assay of four human herpes virus (HHV) detected by AllGlo quadruple fluorescence quantitative PCR.MethodsFour HHV including HSV-1,HSV-2,EBV and CMV were identified by sequence analysing the qualitative PCR production.Furthermore,they were quantitatively detected by AllGlo and TaqMan multiple fluorescence quantitative PCR respectively.ResultsBoth the positive rate and specificity of AllGlo and TaqMan in detecting single HHV achieved 100％.And AllGlo single fluorescence quantitative PCR prevailed over TaqMan's by Ct of 1-3.Four HHV can be simultaneously detected by AllGlo quadruple fluorescence quantitative PCR,comparing to the only two by TaqMan.ConclusionAllGlo fluorescence quantitative PCR assay allows a higher throughput,sensitivity and specificity than TaqMan in detection and thus provides a board prospect.
