Detection And Rflp Analysis Of Canine Parvovirus (Cpv) Dna By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr) In A Dog, Aykut Özkul, İhsan Keleş, Taner Karaoğlu, Mehmet Çabalar, İbrahi̇m Burgu Jan 2002

Detection And Rflp Analysis Of Canine Parvovirus (Cpv) Dna By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr) In A Dog, Aykut Özkul, İhsan Keleş, Taner Karaoğlu, Mehmet Çabalar, İbrahi̇m Burgu

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In this study, the detection of canine parvovirus (CPV) in a fecal sample from a dog with enteritis was performed for the first time using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in Turkey. The final PCR product was analyzed using the restriction fragment length polymorphysm (RFLP) technique. RFLP analysis using Apa LI and Eco RV restriction endonucleases revealed homology in the nucleotide sequence in at least the VP2 coding region of the virus DNAs detected in the fecal specimen and prepared from attenuated vaccine virus as a positive control.


Identification Of Chicken Originated Campylobacter Coli And Campylobacter Jejuni By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr), Hasan Basri̇ Ertaş, Burhan Çeti̇nkaya, Adi̇le Muz, Hasan Öngör Jan 2002

Identification Of Chicken Originated Campylobacter Coli And Campylobacter Jejuni By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr), Hasan Basri̇ Ertaş, Burhan Çeti̇nkaya, Adi̇le Muz, Hasan Öngör

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The purpose of this study was to isolate Campylobacter species from the intestines and livers of chicken and to identify Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni by both conventional methods and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Four specific primers derived from the ceuE gene present in the genomes of C. coli and C. jejuni were used for PCR identification. In the examination of 150 intestine and liver samples by culture and PCR, 25 (16.6%) and 32 (21.3%) were identified as C. coli and C. jejuni, respectively. It was concluded that the PCR assay used in this study may successfully be applied for …


Detection Of Leptospira Species By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr) In Urine Of Cattle, Burhan Çeti̇nkaya, Hasan Basri̇ Ertaş, Hasan Öngör, Adi̇le Muz Jan 2000

Detection Of Leptospira Species By Polymerase Chain Reaction (Pcr) In Urine Of Cattle, Burhan Çeti̇nkaya, Hasan Basri̇ Ertaş, Hasan Öngör, Adi̇le Muz

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was carried out to investigate the prevalance of leptospirosis in the urine of cattle slaughtered in three major abattoirs in the east of Turkey. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based on a pair of genus-specific primers was used to detect leptospiral DNA in the urine samples of 473 cattle, 284 of which were from Elazig, 112 from Malatya and 77 from Diyarbakir. The detection limit of the method was determined to be approximately five bacteria per ml of urine. In the examination of urine samples, 4.02% (19/473) (95% confidence intervals [Cl] 2.4-6.2) were found to be positive by …
