Improvement of a RT-PCR assay for Yellow Fever virus genome detection

The aim of the present study was to describe an improved protocol of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for Yellow Fever virus genome detection. A strain of ribonucleic acid of Yellow Fever virus was submitted to the improved protocol of RT-PCR and the amplicons were visualized...
