Abstract
Primers and probes specific to the genes encoding extended spectrum beta-lactamase that involves CTX-M groups 1 and 9 that cause extended beta-lactamase resistance in bacteria are described herein, with methods and kits for using these primers and probes to detect CTX-M groups 1 and 9 nucleic acids. In the methods described, nucleic acids present in a clinical or test sample obtained from a biological sample or tissue suspected of containing the CTX-M groups 1 and 9 gene are amplified and corresponding sequences for CTX-M groups 1 and 9 are detected. The amplified nucleic acid can be detected by a variety of state of the art methods, including fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), radiolabels, enzyme labels, and the like.
