Estudio comparativo del diagnóstico de leptospirosis mediante PCR y MAT en el noroeste de México

Abstract: Se empleó la técnica molecular de Reacción en Cadena de la Polimerasa (PCR, por sus siglas en inglés), comparada con la técnica serológica de referencia para la detección de Leptospira spp., para evaluar su aplicación como método de diagnóstico de leptospirosis en muestras de pacientes sintomáticos de reciente infección, atendidos por el sector salud del noroeste de México. Se analizaron muestras de 34 pacientes tanto por PCR como por la técnica de microaglutinación (MAT, por sus siglas en inglés). Los resulta… Show more

“…Several methods based on nucleic acid amplification (NAAT) have been developed for the early detection of Leptospira spp., ranging from conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and its nested variant to real-time PCR and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) [64,65]. In clinical samples, molecular detection is more sensitive than isolation and is the method with the greatest opportunity for early detection [66,67].…”
