POLYNUCLEOTIDES FOR THE AMPLIFICATION AND DETECTION OF NEISSERIA GONORRHOEAE

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are primers and probes related to the detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae via nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT), for example to amplify and determine the presence of N. gonorrhoeae nucleic acids present in test samples. Specifically the present disclosure describes primers and probes that bind to the small subunit rRNA (cytosine (967)-C(5))-methyltransferase or rsmB gene of N. gonorrhoeae for detection via loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and molecular beacon hybridization.
