Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been implicated in a variety of central nervous system syndromes. In a few well-studied patients, EBV has been detected by viral isolation or EBV D N A has been found by Southern hybridization analysis. Using polymerase chain reaction, we evaluated brain biopsy specimen

## Abstract Investigation of varicella‐zoster virus (VZV) is important epidemiologically, and determination of its prevalence rate in human trigeminal ganglia is important to provide surveillance data. To date, studies on VZV detection in trigeminal ganglia have used specimens obtained from a relat
Three oligonucleotide primer combinations selected from the 5' noncoding, the nucleocapsid and the putative nonstructural regions of the hepatitis C virus genome were compared in a nested polymerase chain reaction assay with respect to sensitivity and specificity for the detection of viral RNA in ch
The combination of reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction is a very powerful tool for the detection of hepatitis C virus RNA in sera of patients with hepatitis C virus infection. However, when studying the presence of this virus in tissue using polymerase chain reaction, it may be diffi
