An evaluation of PCR primer sets used for detection of Propionibacterium acnes in prostate tissue samples

BACKGROUND Multiple studies have now shown that Propionibacterium acnes can be cultured from post‐prostatectomy derived prostate tissue samples. In contrast, both universal eubacterial 16S rDNA PCR and P. acnes‐specific 16S rDNA PCR have failed to detect this organism at a frequency similar to that...
