## Abstract Infections with __Mollicutes__ species (such as __Mycoplasma__, __Acholeplasma__, and __Ureaplasma__) can induce a variety of problems in living organisms and laboratory cell cultures. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a routine diagnostic protocol for __Mycoplasma__ infection in

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to amplify human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) directly from urine specimens taken from renal transplant patients. In serial urine yields a more consistent measure of the presence of HCMV in the urine of renal transplant patients than virus isolation, antige
## Abstract Recently a conventional method for the laboratory diagnosis of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection was improved by using centrifugation culture to enhance viral adsorption and by detecting HCMV early antigen and DNA. Comparison of the sensitivity of three rapid methods using commerci
We have studied 3 I male germ cell tumors (GCTs) for probable mutations in codons 12, 13, and 6 I of HRAS, KRAS, and NRAS oncogenes using the polymerase chain reaction. Twenty of the thirty-one tumors exhibited NRAS gene mutations, 14 in codon 6 I, and six in codon 12, whereas no mutations were dete
## Abstract A gene amplification method that combines the polymerase chain reaction with detection of amplified DNA in a solution hybridization/enzyme immunoassay (PCRβEIA) was developed for HPVβ16 DNA. Samples were amplified with primers for the E7βE1 region of HPVβ16. Amplified DNA products were
