Problems solved by technology

LAMP products are complex, and it is difficult to carry out further sequence characteristics and other related analysis on the products, resulting in complicated subsequent applications, and it is not easy to further carry out simultaneous analysis of multiple sequences
RCA relies on circular templates, but the vast majority of genomic DNA is linear molecules, and the cost of synthesizing rolling circle amplification lock probes is high, and there is a signal background problem. The generation of target DNA fragments containing enzyme cleavage sites at both ends and multiple stages of strand displacement reaction require modified dNTPs as substrates, and the preparation of target sequences is complex

Embodiment 3

[0068] Example 3 Reaction Sensitivity Verification

[0069] As described in Example 2, the amplification detection mixture and the primer mixture configured by the third set of primers were amplified and real-time fluorescently detected under the conditions of 63°C and 90min for real-time fluorescence curves of different concentrations of tcdB plasmid DNA, each concentration in turn It is 10 pM, 1 pM, 100 fM, 10 fM, 1 fM, 100 aM, 0 aM. Use a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument for detection, and read the fluorescence value every 30s. For the real-time fluorescence curve of the specific results, please refer to the attached image 3 . The real-time fluorescence curve shows that the concentration of tcdB plasmid DNA can be detected as low as 100aM in this example, indicating the high sensitivity and extremely low detection limit of the method of the present invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of molecular biology and relates to a primer composition for detecting Clostridium difficile, and also relates to a kit and a method for detecting Clostridium difficile. Background technique [0002] Clostridium difficile (C.difficile) is a toxin-producing or non-toxin-producing anaerobic bacillus and is one of the normal flora of the human intestinal tract. When the normal intestinal flora is imbalanced due to the extensive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and other reasons, the excessive reproduction of the bacteria will cause antibiotic-associated diarrhea, Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea, etc., and in severe cases, it can cause pseudomembranous enteritis and even death. Clinically, about 15% to 25% of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, 50% to 75% of antibiotic-associated colitis and 95% to 100% of pseudomembranous colitis are caused by CDI (Clostridium difficile infection). In the United States and Europe...
