ABSTRACT
Objective To establish TaqMan Real-Time PcR method for detection and identification of Neisseria meningitidis.Methods Seven sets of primers and FAM-labeled probes targeting different genes of Neisseria meningitidis were designed and synthesized.ctrA gene was used for identification of N.meningitidis species.Six serogruops(A,B,C,X,Y,W135)of N.meningitidis were detected with following genessacB(A),siaD(B),siaD(C),xcbB(X),synF(Y)and synG(W135)respectively.Sensitivity and specificity of Real-Time PCR were assessed for different primers and probes.121cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)specimens from suspected N.meningitidis invasive meningitis cases were detected by latex agglutination test and Real-Time PCR assay simultaneously.Resuits 79 N.meningitidis isolates of different serogroups could be detected and identified by seven sets of primers and probes in this study.Real-Time PCR seemed more sensitive than standard PCR bv 101-103 times.The respective sensitivities for ctrA,sacB,siaD(B),siaD(C),xcbB,synF and synG were 8,8,80,8,8,80,8 genomeDNA copies in each reaction.Of the 121 CSF specimens,11 were positive for Real-Time PCR and 6 for latex agglutination test.Conclusion Real-Time PCR could rapidly detect and identify N.meningitidis of different serogroups and seemed more sensitive.It could be widely used for diagnose of invasive meningitis caused bv N.meningitidis.
