Abstract

ABSTRACT A duplex PCR (dPCR) assay was developed to simultaneously detect and differentiate Bartonella quintana , Bartonella henselae , and Coxiella burnetii from surgical heart valve tissue specimens with an analytic sensitivity of 10 copies/reaction. Among 17 specimens collected from patients with a clinical diagnosis of culture-negative endocarditis, 2, 4, and 2 were positive for B . quintana , B . henselae , and C . burnetii , respectively, by the dPCR assay, which matched the results obtained by universal bacterial 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing.
