ABSTRACT
Background: Cytomegalovirus is a betaherpesvirus responsible for
persistent infections that are generally asymptomatic in healthy individuals.
In the absence of an effective immune response, as in neonates,
cancer patients, organ transplant recipients, individuals with AIDS, etc.,
cytomegalovirus may cause severe disease. Early detection of this virus
would prevent serious health consequences in immunocompromised
patients; it is important to employ sensitive methods and accurate detection
to support treatment-related decision making. Real-time molecular
methods, such as the polymerase chain reaction, possess higher sensitivity
to detect positive samples.
Methods: We compared the sensitivity and specificity of the following
detection methods: the endpoint PCR trade-validated method (
Pol, viral
gene target) and real-time PCR, which detects viral genes
Pol (early
gene), and
pp65 (late gene). We performed a cross-sectional study of
43 human immunodefi ciency virus-positive samples.
Results: The molecular detection methods in real-time detected a
greater number of cytomegalovirus-positive samples than those at the
endpoint.
Conclusions: There must be at least two independent cytomegalovirus
target-genes in order to make the detection by real-time PCR.
