Oligonucleotides and methods for the detection of (neisseria gonorrhoeae)

摘要

The present invention relates to oligonucleotide probes and primers useful in detecting Neisseria gonorrhoeae e.g. by the polymerase chain reaction. The present invention is also directed to methods for detecting Neisseria gonorrhoeae by the polymerase chain reaction. The probes and primers are specific for the pilin gene.
