## Abstract This study has evaluated the clinical applicability of a single‐tube multiplex RT‐ PCR as compared with a two‐step nested RT‐PCR for the diagnosis as well as serotyping of dengue virus in patient's samples. Seventy‐six acute phase blood samples collected from clinically suspected dengue
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used previously for the detection and typing of adenoviruses directly in clinical samples. Since under clinical conditions subgenus-specific identification is often sufficient, we extended the genus-and type-specific PCR by a subgenusspecific PCR. By sequ
