A mismatch-tolerant RT-quantitative PCR: application to broad-spectrum detection of respiratory syncytial virus

Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is widely used to detect viruses. However, mismatches occurring in the 3′-end of the primers reduce amplification efficiency of qPCR and limit its capacity in detection of highly variable viruses. Here, we reported a mismatch-tolerant RT-qPCR with a small amount of additional...
