Touchdown-touchup nested PCR for low-copy gene detection of benzimidazole-susceptible Wuchereria bancrofti with a Wolbachia endosymbiont imported by migrant carriers
A novel, sensitive and specific touchdown-touchup nested PCR (TNPCR) technique based on two useful molecular markers, a Wuchereria bancrofti β-tubulin gene involved in benzimidazole susceptibility and a Wolbachia ftsZ gene involved in cell division, was developed to simultaneously detect the parasit...
