Problems solved by technology

Currently, PCR detection methods for toxigenic Clostridium difficile may rely on specific instruments (such as Xpert, etc.), which limits its clinical application, or are only for the detection of toxins A and B, and cannot detect binary toxins , so it cannot be highly virulent strains (A + B + CDT + ) for early warning and prompting (Jin Dazhi, Luo Yun, Luo Li, etc. Multiplex fluorescent PCR combined with Allglo probe technology to detect Clostridium difficile-related toxin genes [J].

Embodiment 1

[0050] Example 1 Design of Multiplex Fluorescent Quantitative PCR Primers and Probes for Detecting Toxigenic Clostridium difficile

[0051] The present invention takes the tcdA, tcdB and cdtB genes of toxigenic Clostridium difficile as detection targets, and through the tcdA, tcdB and cdtB gene sequences of different molecular types of toxigenic Clostridium difficile reported in the NCBI database, as well as the complete clinical isolates The genome sequencing sequence was analyzed and compared to clarify the genetic characteristics and sequence mutations of the genes. The primer probe design regions of the tcdA, tcdB and cdtB genes were respectively determined, and several pairs of specific primers and probes were designed for the design regions. BLAST was performed online by NCBI to exclude its non-specific binding to other species, and it was further verified and screened through experiments. Among them, the tcdA gene sequence needs special emphasis. At present, the common ...

[0067] Example 2 Multiplex fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method for toxigenic Clostridium difficile

[0068] The optimal primers and probes determined in Example 1 optimize the reaction conditions of multiplex fluorescent quantitative PCR, wherein, in order to simultaneously and efficiently amplify the toxin coding genes tcdA, tcdB and cdtB, the optimization of the annealing temperature of the PCR reaction conditions The process is as follows:

[0069] The reaction conditions of multiplex fluorescent quantitative PCR are as follows: the first step, pre-denaturation, 95°C, 20s, one cycle; the second step, PCR reaction, 95°C, 3s, 58°C, 30s, 40 cycles.

[0070] The annealing temperatures were set at 56°C, 58°C and 60°C, respectively, and the results showed that the amplification efficiencies at each annealing temperature were shown in Table 1. The results showed that the three genes had better amplification efficiencies at 58°C ( figure 2 ), therefore, 58°C was chosen...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of detection of toxigenic Clostridium difficile, in particular to multiple fluorescent quantitative PCR primers, probes and kits for detecting toxigenic Clostridium difficile and applications thereof. Background technique [0002] Clostridium difficile (Clostridium difficile) is an important pathogen of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. It is a strictly anaerobic, spore-forming Gram-positive bacillus, and its cultivation is relatively difficult and requires anaerobic equipment. The main pathogenic factors of Clostridium difficile infection are enterotoxin A, cytotoxin B, and binary toxin CDT. Therefore, rapid and accurate identification of toxin-producing Clostridium difficile can be achieved without culturing. Diagnosis and timely and accurate treatment are of great significance. [0003] The nucleic acid-based Clostridium difficile detection method (NAAT) has been listed as a rapid detection method recommen...
