Abstract: This invention relates to a method of identifying mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, a kit for performing the method, and furthermore to isolated nucleotide sequences being complementary to one or more mutations of the CFTR gene. According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a method of identifying mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, including the steps of providing one or more nucleic acid sequences, fully complementary to one or more segments of the CFTR gene, wherein the one or more nucleic acid sequences correspond to the mutation to be identified; providing a biological sample of an individual to be tested for CF; isolating nucleic acids from the biological sample; and testing the biological sample for the presence of one or more of the nucleic acid sequences using a suitable detection method.
