Filed:

Aug 13, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/191186

Inventors:

Stephen Lindstrom - Doraville GA, US
Alexander Klimov - Atlanta GA, US
Nancy Cox - Atlanta GA, US
Lamorris Loftin - Philadelphia PA, US

Assignee:

The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention - Washington DC

International Classification:

C12Q 1/68
C12M 1/34
C07H 21/04

US Classification:

435 611, 435 5, 435 61, 435 612, 4352872, 435810, 536 2432, 536 2433

Abstract:

Methods of detecting influenza, including differentiating between type and subtype are disclosed, for example to detect, type, and/or subtype an influenza infection. A sample suspected of containing a nucleic acid of an influenza virus, is screened for the presence or absence of that nucleic acid. The presence of the influenza virus nucleic acid indicates the presence of influenza virus. Determining whether the influenza virus nucleic acid is present in the sample can be accomplished by detecting hybridization between an influenza specific probe, influenza type specific probe, and/or subtype specific probe and an influenza nucleic acid. Probes and primers for the detection, typing and/or subtyping of influenza virus are also disclosed. Kits and arrays that contain the disclosed probes and/or primers also are disclosed.
