Evaluation of amplification targets for the specific detection of Bordetella pertussis using real-time polymerase chain reaction

BACKGROUND: Bordetella pertussis infections continue to be a major public health challenge in Canada. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays to detect B pertussis are typically based on the multicopy insertion sequence IS481, which offers high sensitivity but lacks species specificity. METHODS: A no...
