Hello,
I have ordered A2142C, GyrA(261A), GyrA(271T),GyrA(272G), GyrA(261G) and GyrA(271A) primer probes in this literature separately.
Article Evaluation of multiplex ARMS-PCR for detection of Helicobact...
I ran a clean PCR but I see unspecific amplification for A2142C in all reaction wells and NTC which is not changed flatted by dilution of primer probe.(attachment 1)
I also see amplification for GyrA(271T),GyrA(272G), GyrA(261G) and GyrA(271A) in H.pylori ATCC-43504 and H.pylori ATCC-700392 (26695) that do not contain levofloxacin resistant genes based on other studies.
-Are these issues duo to using ARMS PCR primer probes in real time PCR?
-or ATCC strains are not pure?
-What is the problem?
