Abstract:

In the recent years,the incidence of respiratory infectious diseases has been on the rise. However,traditional diagnostic techniques for respiratory pathogens have limitations,such as long processing time and low determination limit. Molecular diagnostic techniques,on the other hand,offer advantages of rapidity,sensitivity and automation. This review focuses on the role of molecular diagnostic techniques in the etiological diagnosis of respiratory tract infections,and it also looks forward to the future development and direction of molecular diagnostic techniques.
