Publication number: 20140272940Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to compositions and methods for detection of multiple target nucleic acid sequences by a single nucleic acid amplification based assay (e.g. PCR). Compositions comprising two or more primers are described for multiple target nucleic acid detection. Methods for differential detection of microorganisms (including strains/serovars/subtypes thereof) and cell types comprise a single step method to detect a signature of target nucleic acid sequences comprising: two, three or more target nucleic acids that are uniquely present in a microorganism/strain/serovar/subtype and/or cell and absent in other closely related organisms/cells. Embodiments relate to methods of diagnosis of diseases or conditions that can be detected by detecting the presence of two or more nucleic acid target markers.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2014Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: LIFE TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATIONInventors: Wayne Ge, Craig Cummings, Darcy Myers, Quoc Hoang, Catherine O'Connell, Maxim Brevnov, Daniel Kephart
