PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject new probe being specifically reacted with DNAs which Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae possess, comprising a DNA contained in a genomic DNA of Escherichia coli. SOLUTION: This probe for diagnosing infections is useful for diagnosing infections with infectious disease-causing bacteria and is specifically reacted with DNAs which Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae possess. The new probe for diagnosing infections comprises at least one base sequence among base sequences of formula I, formula II, etc., contained in a genomic DNA of Escherichia coli. The probe is obtained by digesting the genomic DNA of the bacteria separated from a patient infected with the bacteria and or their combination with HindIV and selecting a fragment crossed by hybridization between a plasmid into which the fragment of the digestion is inserted and a chromosome DNA derived from the bacteria. |
