Abstract: Disclosed are nucleic acid oligomers, including amplification oligomers, detection probes, and capture probes, for detection of Plasmodium species nucleic acid in a sample. Also disclosed are methods of specific nucleic acid amplification and detection, including amplification and detection of target nucleic acid in real time, using the disclosed oligomers, as well as corresponding reaction mixtures and kits.

Abstract: A combination of at least two oligomers is for determining the presence or absence of Babesia in a sample. The combination includes first and second amplification oligomers for amplifying a target region of Babesia target nucleic acid. The first amplification oligomer includes a first target-hybridizing sequence that is from about 15 to about 33 contiguous nucleotides in length, is contained in the sequence of SEQ ID NO:97 and includes SEQ ID NO: 101 or its analogue. The second amplification oligomer includes a second target-hybridizing sequence that is from about 15 to about 33 contiguous nucleotides in length. The second amplification oligomer can also be contained in SEQ ID NO:68 and include SEQ ID NO:85 or its analogue, or contained in SEQ ID NO:70 and include SEQ ID NO:48, or include SEQ ID NO:84.

Abstract: There is described herein a method for specifically detecting Babesia species nucleic acid in a sample, which in one aspect comprises: (1) contacting a sample, said sample suspected of containing Babesia species nucleic acid, with at least two oligomers for amplifying a target region of a Babesia species target nucleic acid, wherein the at least two amplification oligomers comprise: (a) a first amplification oligomer comprising a first target-hybridizing sequence (i) that is from about 15 to about 33 contiguous nucleotides in length, is contained in the sequence of SEQ ID NO:66 and comprises SEQ ID NO:56 or 57; or (ii) that is from about 15 to about 33 contiguous nucleotides in length, is contained in the sequence of SEQ ID NO:96 and comprises SEQ ID NO:101; or (iii) that is from about 15 to about 33 contiguous nucleotides in length, is contained in the sequence of SEQ ID NO:97 and comprises SEQ ID NO:101; (iv) comprises or consists of SEQ ID NO:8; (v) comprises or consists of SEQ ID NO:83 and (b) a second am
