[Modification and optimization of PCR methods for detection of MIE region from human herpesvirus 5].

Human herpesvirus 5 (HHV-5, formerly known as CMV) is a beta-herpesvirus widely spread within a population. Thus, HHV-5 infections are a serious matter of concern in a group of immunocompromised patients. The goal of the study was modification and optimization of conventional PCR method developed for the detection of HHV-5 DNA to the real-time variant (RTmPCR) and determination of analytical resolution of the modified methods.
