Semiquantitative Detection of Viral DNA, e.g. for CMV, by Using the DNA Enzyme Immunoassay (DEIA)

  • Chapter
Quantitation of mRNA by Polymerase Chain Reaction

Part of the book series: Springer Labor Manuals ((SLM))

Abstract

Cytomegalovirus, consisting of a unique double-stranded DNA genome 240 kb in length, is a member of the Herpes virus family. Herpes viruses are ubiquitous agents which infect humans and can cause high morbidity and mortality [1].
