Problems solved by technology

A major limitation of these systems is the inability to distinguish closely related strains of the same organism, since the detected hybridization events may not be sensitive to local sequence diversity
For example, spotted microarray probes can non-specifically cross-hy...

Embodiment 1

[0022] RPM v.1 Chip Design - The RPM v.1 (Respiratory Pathogen Microarray) chip design includes 57 tiles that allow resequencing of 29.7kb sequences from 27 respiratory pathogens and biological warfare agents and was detailed in previous studies Described (Lin et al., "Broad-spectrum respiratory tract pathogen identification using resequencing DNA microarrays" Genome Res., 16(4), 527-535 (2006)). Briefly, RPM arrays consist of 25-mer perfectly matched probes representing sequences at each base within (and centered around) sequences selected from the genome of a target organism. In addition, for each perfectly matched probe, three mismatched probes representing the three possible single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the central location were also tiled on the array. Thus, hybridization to a series of perfectly matched probes provides redundant presence / absence information, while hybridization to mismatched probes reveals strain-specific SNP data. On the chip, two pathogen...

Embodiment 2

[0028] Clinical samples-archived throat swabs were collected from patients with symptoms of ARI at multiple Army recruit training centers, the US-Mexico border zone, and on board Navy ships deployed in 1999-2005. These throat swabs were immediately placed in chilled 2 mL vials containing 1.5 mL of viral transport medium (VTM), frozen and stored at -80°C or below to maintain virions during transport. Samples were then shipped to the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC, San Diego, CA), thawed and aliquoted, and tested for HAdV and influenza virus using a CAP-certified diagnostic RT-PCR / PCR and culture assay. to test. Frozen aliquots were subsequently submitted for microarray-based detection in blinded fashion.

Abstract

A PCR method involving: providing a biological sample suspected of containing one or more pathogen nucleic acids; adding a plurality of PCR primers corresponding to genes found in the pathogens; and performing a polymerase chain reaction on the sample to amplify a subset of the nucleic acids that correspond to the genes. The primers include at least one primer pair for each pathogen, and the primers contain a tail sequence that is not homologous any pathogen DNA or to any background DNA in the sample. The concentration of at least one primer in the polymerase chain reaction is no more than about 100 nM.
