ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a method for detecting micro-organisms constituting a flora of micro-organisms, whereof at least part of the elements has a common operon. The invention is characterised in that it consists in identifying the elements of said flora by studying the intergenetic sequence of said operon, and the support exhibiting nucleic acids capable of hybridizing said intergenetic sequence.
