The present invention is directed to methods and reagents for determining the genotype of a hepatitis C virus (HCV) species present in a test sample. The invention more particularly relates to mixtures of degenerate amplification and sequencing primers, and methods of using such primers, that are complementary to a plurality of HCV species, and are capable of generating nucleotide sequence information for a region of NS5B of HCV that is, for each species, indicative of the type and/or subtype, of the species present in the sample.

L'invention concerne des méthodes et des réactifs destinés à déterminer le génotype d'une espèce de virus de l'hépatite C (VHC) présente dans un échantillon test. L'invention concerne en particulier des mélanges d'amorces de séquençage et d'amplification dégénérées, et des méthodes d'utilisation de telles amorces. Ces amorces sont complémentaires à une pluralité d'espèces de VHC et permettent de générer des informations concernant des séquences nucléotidiques associées à une zone de NS5B de VHC. Ces informations indiquent, pour chaque espèce, le type et/ou le sous-type de l'espèce présente dans l'échantillon.
