Abstract
A method for identifying a predefined target organism includes extracting a nucleic acid from a sample to form an extracted nucleic acid, amplifying the extracted nucleic acid to form a nucleic acid amplicon, tagging the nucleic acid amplicon with a capture probe and a detector partner to form a detector partner-nucleic acid amplicon-capture probe complex, and performing a detection assay on the detector partner-nucleic acid amplicon-capture probe complex to identify whether the predefined target organism is present in the sample.
