PCR, or polymerase chain reaction, is the most hoped-for diagnostic method for ehrlichiosis detection. In European molecular laboratories, the gene encoding 16S rRNA for ribosomal small subunit has been the most frequently used Ehrlichia DNA marker. Due to a lack of PCR standardization, this work compares sensitivity of two pairs of primers that amplify the 16S rDNA gene fragments.
