The present invention relates to new primers for the detection of any of three important bacterial indicator groups used in food microbiology and two virulence factors, which are associated with the aetiology of several types of watery and bloody human diarrhoea. It also provides a method for subtyping the two virulence factors. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to use of the primers, as well as use of the primers in a method which enables this detection, as well as the detection of new emerging pathogenic bacteria. The bacterial indicator group are identified by using primers specific for the aa (6') - Ii, eep, gadA and GadB genes. The virulence factors are identified …

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 19, 2002. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended December 19, 2022.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 19, 2024.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
