Use of a synthetic oligonucleotide to detect false positives caused by cross-contamination in nested PCR

Nested PCR is a useful tool for identifying low-abundance target sequences of pathogens and avoiding false negatives. However, it carries an increased risk of cross-contamination, especially with its positive control. Here, we propose using customized synthetic oligonucleotides to detect false posit...
