The invention discloses a primer combination for simultaneously detecting eight herpes viruses by a
single tube, a PCR (
Polymerase Chain Reaction) detection
system and application, and relates to the technical field of
herpes virus detection. Aiming at eight
human herpes viruses, the invention provides a corresponding primer combination and an octuple PCR detection
system, the detection sensitivity to single and
mixed infection of the herpes viruses reaches 1 * 10 < 4 > copies (50 mu L
system), non-specific amplification is avoided, and the eight
human herpes viruses can be detected at the same time. When the system is used for detecting 30
cell samples, one EBV sample is detected to be positive, the rest EBV samples are detected to be negative, the result is consistent with the result obtained by using an EBV rapid
visual detection system established in an earlier stage of a laboratory, and very high accuracy is achieved.
