Kits are available for the detection and quantification of DNA and RNA in clinical samples, and the technique has been specifically developed to enable the follow-up of patients with HIV and hepatitis C infections (Amplitech AME Bioscience; Bayer Diagnostics; Roche Diagnostics). Mass-spectrometry analysis of base-specific fragmentation patterns of PCRamplified DNA has recently been studied as a technique for the rapid identification of bacterial isolates and for the detection of specific 16S rRNA gene fragments that are amplified from complex environmental samples 35 . These automated microarrays will be suitable both for mass screening of sera in epidemiology studies and in blood banks, and for diagnostics that are carried out on single serum samples in clinical microbiology laboratories.	./cache/cord-331557-8axi74nn.txt	./txt/cord-331557-8axi74nn.txt
