“…Confirmation of analysis results; sensitivity and specificity calculations. All single identifications made with just one of the two methods were confirmed with a third method using either real time PCR with HPV type-specific primers (HPV6, 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 42, 43, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 66, 68, 90) and SYBR ® Select Master Mix (Thermo Fischer Scientific) or by sequencing of a 450 bp PGMY amplicon [18,19] on a MiSeq (Illumina) platform (HPV30, 32, 40, 53, 54, 62, 67, 73, 74, 82, 87, 89, 91 and 114). Type-specific HPV primers were designed using Primer3 [33] for HPV types: 68 (forward: , reverse: , T A = 54.2°C) and 90 (forward: , reverse: , T A = 51.9°C).…”
