摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing and/or monitoring a bacterial or parasitic infection by detection and quantification of the transrenal nucleic acids, derived from bacterial pathogenic agents or from parasites, in urine. The detection method optionally includes the isolation and the purification of the nucleic acids from urine by methods known in the art including pairing with molecular probes that are specific for the pathogenic agents, PCR hybridization, PCR, nested PCR, SSCP, LCR, and SDA. Diagnostic kits based on these detection methods are also claimed.
