Abstract
This study was to develop a multiplex fluorescent PCR for Shigella detection and species identification. Five primer pairs for Shigella detection and species identification were designed by Primer Premier 5.0. The multiplex fluorescent PCR was optimized by varying single parameter while other parameters were maintained. The multiplex fluorescent PCR assay could correctly detect Shigella and identify four Shigella species with a detection limits of 10pg genomic DNA per reaction. Testing different strains and clinical samples confirmed the sensitivity and specificity of the multiplex fluorescent PCR. The newly developed multiplex fluorescent PCR assay is simple, sensitive and specific for Shigella detection and species identification. It has a potential to be used in routine Shigella detection and species identification in clinical laboratories.
