Claim:
1. A kit, comprising: (a) a reagent containing bisulfite; (b) primer or probe oligonucleotides for detection of the cytosine methylation state of the Septin 9 gene, where the primer or probe oligonucleotides each individually comprise at least 14 contiguous bases of a portion of a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 12693, 12694, 12695, and 12696, wherein the portion of the sequence comprises at least one CpG dinucleotide, and wherein at least one of the primer or probe oligonucleotides is a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomer or is bound to a solid support or to a fluorescent or radionuclide label; and (c) instructions for conducting a method for detecting the degree of methylation of a genomic DNA sample.
