ABSTRACT:
A method for the selective amplification of a target nucleic acid in a sample comprising the target nucleic acid and at least one non-target nucleic acid, the method comprising amplifying the nucleic acids by means of at least one oligonucleotide primer comprising:a primer region that can prime and extend on the target and non-target nucleic acids; anda region that is an inverted repeat of an internal sequence of an amplicon of the at least one non-target nucleic acid but which contains at least one mismatch to the corresponding internal sequence, if present, of an amplicon of the target nucleic acid.
