A METHOD OF DETECTING A MICROORGANISM IN A SAMPLE BY A FLUORESCENCE BASED DETECTION METHOD USING SOMAMERS

摘要

The invention further relates to a slow off-rate modified aptamer comprising a fluorescent label, wherein the SOMAmer comprises a nucleotide sequence specific for Staphylococcus aureus, its use for detecting Staphylococcus aureus cells in a sample, and to a microarray or biosensor and a kit comprising at least one of such SOMAmers comprising a fluorescent label.
