Claim 3:
4. The probe set of claim 1, wherein the degenerate primer/probe set target is SEQ ID NO: 38 and wherein the third primer/probe set is configured to discriminate for HPV serotype 59 and is not degenerate with respect to the first or second primer/probe set, wherein the primer/probe set is selected from at least one of the sequences selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 30-35 and sequences that are at least 70% homologous to SEQ ID NOS: 30-35; the first primer/probe set selects for HPV serotype 56 and does not discriminate for HPV 66 serotype with respect to HPV serotype 56, wherein the first primer/probe set is selected from at least one of the sequences selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 17, 19 and 21 and sequences that are at least 70% homologous to SEQ ID NOS: 17, 19 and 21; and the second primer/probe set selects for HPV serotype 66 and does not discriminate for HPV 66 serotype with respect to HPV serotype 56, wherein the second primer/probe set is selected from at least one of the sequences selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 18, 20, 22, and 23 and sequences that are at least 70% homologous to SEQ ID NOS: 18, 20, 22, and 23.
