Nucleic acid amplication -signal amplification
Increases the signal generated from hybridized probe molecule
Probe amplificationEnd product is an amplified version of original
product includes LCR, cycling probe technology
In LCR phenotypic change in the organism such as virulence or drug resistance
![Page 32: Labdiagnosisofbacterialinfections 130519094357-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070317/556e298cd8b42a6a698b4a93/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Disadvantages of molecular methods
Amplification can amplify even minute quantities of contaminating DNA – false (+)
Do not differentiate dead from living organisms
False(-) results may due to low copy no’s of microorganisims at site of infection
