Abstract
Disclosed is a method for determining the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex nucleic acids in a test sample. In particular, regions of the IS6110 preferential locus (ipl) 3′-flanking region of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex genome are amplified and detected. In addition, oligonucleotides that can be used as primers to amplify the ipl 3′-flanking region and probe oligonucleotides are described.
