Oligonucleotide probes, kit containing the same and method for pathotyping of H5 avian influenza viruses

摘要

The present invention provides a group of specific probes directed to cleavage site of hemagglutinin precursor protein of avian influenza virus subtypes H5, and provides a method for rapid pathotyping of H5 avian influenza virus. The present invention further provides a kit containing the probes and the kit is easy-to-use, low-cost, high sensitivity, enabled the molecular pathotyping of H5 viruses by a simpler and faster means that conventional methods.
