Evaluation of polymerase chain reaction amplification of Mycobacterium leprae-specific repetitive sequence in biopsy specimens from leprosy patients.

Biopsy specimens were obtained from 102 leprosy patients before chemotherapy and examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the primers amplifying the 372-bp DNA of a repetitive sequence of Mycobacterium leprae. The PCR results were then compared with bacterial indices (BI) of slit-skin smear...
