Abstract:
Infectious diseases are characterized as their pathogens.So the detection of pathogen is very important for the diagnosis of infectious diseases.Molecular diagnosis based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is playing an important role in the diagnosis,therapy,and prevention for infectious diseases.The concept of quasispecies must be put into consideration for quasispecies are universal for almost every pathogen and important for the diagnosis.Resistance is emerging along with anti-microbial therapy and has comprehensive impaet for treatment of infectious diseases.Diagnosis of resistance will be helpful for seleetion of right drug,and modification of therapy protocol,and reduction of resistance.Genotyping technique is meaningful for individualized therapy for patients with infectious diseases.
