CA 2720754

The invention provides a method for detecting a mycobacterium belonging to the MTB complex in a sample, the method comprising: (a) contacting the sample with a pair of forward and reverse oligonucleotide primers; wherein said forward primer hybridises to a target nucleic acid sequence located within a Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit (MIRU) repeat element; and wherein said reverse primer hybridises to a target nucleic acid sequence located within a Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit (MIRU) repeat element; (b) extending said forward and reverse primers to generate an amplification product; and (c) detecting the amplification product.

L'invention porte sur un procédé de détection d'une mycobactérie appartenant au complexe MTB dans un échantillon. Le procédé comprend les opérations consistant à : (a) mettre en contact l'échantillon avec une paire d'amorces oligonucléotidiques sens et anti-sens, ladite amorce sens s'hybridant à une séquence d'acide nucléique cible située dans un élément de répétition d'unité répétitive intercalée mycobactérienne (MIRU), et ladite amorce anti-sens s'hybridant à une séquence d'acide nucléique cible située dans un élément de répétition d'unité répétitive intercalée mycobactérienne (MIRU), (b) étendre lesdites amorces sens et anti-sens pour générer un produit d'amplification; et (c) détecter le produit d'amplification.
