We report a PCR-based protocol for the detection of Human papillomavirus in vaginal swab specimens. We first compare the two most frequently used amplification systems, the MY-PCR and GP-PCR, on samples. We choose the MY-PCR system to establish our protocol, due to its high amplification capacity. The protocol includes three steps: (1) DNA extraction by Boom's method, (2) amplification of HPV DNA by use of MY09-MY1 primers, (3) detection of specific amplicons (450 bp) by agarose gel electrophoresis. The protocol is then used to detect HPV DNA in 100 samples and gives positive results in 92 samples.
