Modified General Primer PCR System for Sensitive Detection of Multiple Types of Oncogenic Human Papillomavirus
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary cause of cervical cancer and cervical dysplasia. Accurate and sensitive genotyping of multiple oncogenic HPVs is essential for a multitude of both clinical and research uses. We developed a modified general primer (MGP) PCR system with five forward and five reverse consensus primers. The MGP system was compared to the classical HPV general primer
