ABSTRACT:
Described is a method of detecting the presence of Lyme Disease organism comprising the steps of (a) combining a sample with an oligonucleotide probe for the organism; (b) hybridizing the probe with the organism; and (c) determining the presence of the organism hybridized with the probe. Also described is a kit containing a hybridization buffer, a labeled probe, and filter assemblies on which the hybridized product may be placed during the hybridization reaction. The kit may also contain positive and negative control filters to assist in the evaluation of unknown specimens.
