Abstract: Primers were designed based on insert sequence IS1111 of Coxiella bumetii of Q fever, SYBR GreenⅠReal-time quantitative PCR assay was developed for indentification of Q fever. The recombinant plasmid containing the target sequence was constructed to detect the sensitivity and prepare the standard curve. The method could detect 10² of the plasmid copy numbers.Related coefficient was 0.991 of the standard curve,the amplification efficiency was 98%.The results of specific detection of nucleic acid sample for M.tuberculosis,Chlamydia,Brucella and bovine blood were negative. SYBR GreenⅠfluorescent quantitative PCR method developed in this study had high Brucella sensitivity and specificity,and could be used for clinical test.

Key words: Q fever; Coxiella burnetii; Real-time quantitative PCR; SYBR GreenⅠdye method
