We developed a rapid, sensitive, and specific PCR-based assay for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). The assay includes primer and probe sequences derived from conserved HCMV nucleotide sequences and nonradioactive hybridization-confirmation. The assay detected between 10 and 100 viral genomes. All HCMV clinical isolates tested (39 of 39) gave positive reactions.
