Patent ID: 10100353

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and a kit of parts for detecting the presence or absence of one or more target nucleic acid sequences in a sample, the method comprising a sequence of steps for pre-amplifying the sample by means of a polymerase chain reaction, followed by a sequence of steps comprising an isothermal amplification of the pre-amplified sample, wherein the isothermal amplification comprises a pair of primers comprising a forward primer having a 3′ part that is substantially complementary to a first part of the target sequence, the presence or absence of which is to be detected, and a 5′ part that is substantially homolog to a second part of the target sequence, and a reverse primer comprising a 3′ part that is substantially homolog to a fourth part of the target sequence and a 5′ part that is substantially complementary to a third part of the target sequence.
