摘要 |
The present invention provides a bacteria detection device, bacteria detection method and bacteria detection kit enabling rapid and accurate determination of bacteria present in a test sample, and particularly spore-forming, aerobic bacteria, with a simple procedure. The bacteria detection device according to the present invention is a microarray type of device in which an oligonucleotide, which is based on a nucleotide sequence specific to a genus or species to which a target spore-forming, aerobic bacteria belongs, is immobilized on a substrate. Spore-forming, aerobic bacteria present in a test sample can be easily, rapidly and accurately detected and identified based on the presence or absence of successful hybridization between a probe prepared from the test sample and the oligonucleotide immobilized on the substrate. |
