摘要:
The present invention provides methods for the quantification of an unknown bioagent in a sample by amplification of nucleic acid of the bioagent, and concurrent amplification of a known quantity of a calibration polynucleotide from which are obtained a bioagent identifying amplicon and a calibration amplicon. Upon molecular mass analysis, mass and abundance data are obtained. The identity of the bioagent is then determined from the molecular mass of the bioagent identifying amplicon and the quantity of the identified bioagent in the sample is determined from the abundance data of the bioagent identifying amplicon and the abundance data of the calibration amplicon.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for rapid identification and quantitation of bacteria by amplification of a segment of bacterial nucleic acid followed by analysis by mass spectrometry. The compositions provide for characterization of the molecular masses and base compositions of bacterial nucleic acids which are used to rapidly identify bacteria.
