Hybridization probes derived from the spacer region between the 16S and 23S rRNA genes for the detection of non-viral microorganisms.

摘要

The invention relates to a probe consisting of at least about 15 oligonucleotides of the spacer region between rRNA genes of a non viral organism, particularly prokaryotic organism and more particularly bacteria, and preferably from about 15 oligonucleotides to about the maximum number of oligonucleotides of the spacer region and more preferably from about 15 to about 100 oligonucleotides.
