  • Compositions and methods to detect nucleic acid
    Patent number: 8609829
    Abstract: Compositions are disclosed as nucleic acid sequences that may be used as amplification oligomers, including primers, capture probes for sample preparation, and detection probes specific for Legionella pneumophila 16S or 23S rRNA sequences or DNA encoding 16S or 23S rRNA. Methods are disclosed for detecting the presence of L. pneumophila in samples by using the disclosed compositions in methods that include in vitro nucleic acid amplification of a 16S rRNA sequence or DNA encoding the 16S rRNA sequence, or of a 23S rRNA sequence or DNA encoding the 23S rRNA sequence to produce a detectable amplification product.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 23, 2009
    Date of Patent: December 17, 2013
    Assignee: Gen-Probe Incorporated
    Inventors: Jennifer J. Bungo, James J. Hogan, Reinhold B. Pollner, Marie K. Hudspeth, Shannon K. Kaplan, Elizabeth M. Goslow
