| loop-mediated isothermal amplification (lamp) assays for detection of theileria parva infections targeting the pim and p150 genes. | we have developed two loop-mediated isothermal amplification (lamp) assays for the detection of theileria parva, the causative agent of east coast fever (ecf), an economically important cattle disease in eastern, central and southern africa. these assays target the polymorphic immunodominant molecule (pim) and p150 lamp genes. the primer set for each gene target consists of six primers, and each set recognises eight distinct regions on the target gene to give highly specific detection of t. parv ... | 2010 | 19654009 |
