Abstract
Provided herein are media, methods, kits, primers and oligonucleotide probes for use in the molecular detection of pathogens. These may be used in combination for the rapid, high-throughput screening PCR-based techniques to simultaneously detect multiple pathogens. The multiplex-detection methods have improved sensitivity and specificity for the detection of multiple pathogens simultaneously. Real-time PCR assaying techniques using such primers include microarrays and multiplex arrays, the latter optionally simultaneously with oligonucleotide TaqMan probes.
