Abstract
Compositions, methods and kits for detecting Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) nucleic acids are for detecting very low levels of the viral nucleic acids using nucleic acid amplification. The kit includes a first primer up to 100 bases long and includes a target-complementary 3' terminal sequence of 15-48 contiguous bases. The first primer optionally may include a first primer 5′ sequence (i.e., an upstream sequence) that is not complementary to CHIKV nucleic acids.
