摘要：支原體感染是一種廣泛存在于全球范圍內(nèi)的疾病，尤其是對(duì)于呼吸道感染患者，其病情更加嚴(yán)重。傳統(tǒng)的支原體檢測方法存在許多局限性，如操作繁瑣、準(zhǔn)確性低、檢測時(shí)間長等，因此急需開發(fā)一種快速、準(zhǔn)確、靈敏的支原體檢測方法。本研究旨在利用熒光定量PCR技術(shù)建立支原體快速檢測方法，并對(duì)該方法進(jìn)行應(yīng)用研究。首先通過對(duì)支原體特異性基因的序列分析，設(shè)計(jì)了一對(duì)特異性引物和探針。經(jīng)PCR擴(kuò)增和酶切，獲得目的產(chǎn)物并經(jīng)過序列鑒定，得到280bp的序列。接著，構(gòu)建有關(guān)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)曲線，進(jìn)行檢測方法的優(yōu)化和驗(yàn)證，得到優(yōu)化后的檢測方案，靈敏度可達(dá)到10fg/μl。最后，在臨床樣本中進(jìn)行驗(yàn)證，結(jié)果顯示該方法與傳統(tǒng)方法的檢測結(jié)果相符合，但該方法的操作簡便，檢測時(shí)間短，因而具有更為廣闊的應(yīng)用前景。
