Detection procedure for Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis

摘要

Procedure for the specific detection and optionally quantification of Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP) in a sample of an individual comprising the step of: - detecting the IS900 region of a MAP genome in a sample of an individual with the help of a nucleic acid amplification, wherein that amplification is performed with oligonucleotides specific ones consisting respectively of at least 15 consecutive nucleotides of the sequences according to Seq. ID No. 1 and Seq. ID No. 2 where the detection of the IS900 region of at least one MAP genome indicates the presence of MAP in the individual.
