Title:
DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION OF ENTERIC BACTERIA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003046201
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides probes, antibodies and methods for detecting a gene that is only found in Enterobacteriaceae, the deoxyguanosine triphosphate triphosphohydrolase gene. These probes and methods are useful for the detecting whether test samples, including food and water samples, are infected with enteric bacteria.
