摘要:
Embodiments herein provide for methods, compositions and apparati for detection and/or diagnosis of virus types, subtypes and/or strains. In particular embodiments, the virus is an influenza virus. The apparatus may include a microarray with attached capture probes, designed to bind to oligonucleotides capable of binding at least a portion of a nucleic acid sequence of one or more target genes in a broad array of influenza types, subtypes or strains. The compositions may include isolated nucleic acids as capture probes, target sequences and/or tagged label probes, of use for diagnosis and/or detection of influenza virus.
