Patent ID: 8163486

Claim:
A method of detecting a DNA of Trichophyton tonsurans in a sample by using a probe carrier, comprising: (i) reacting the sample with the probe carrier; and (ii) detecting a reaction intensity of a probe on the probe carrier reacted with a nucleic acid contained in the sample, wherein the probe carrier immobilizes a plurality of probes comprising three probes consisting of the following base sequences (1) to (3) respectively to specifically detect Trichophyton tonsurans: (1) cggcgagcctctctttatagcg (SEQ ID NO. 1) or the complementary sequence thereof; (2) cctctctttatagcggctcaacgc (SEQ ID NO. 2) or the complementary sequence thereof; and (3) ggctttctaggcgaatgggcaa (SEQ ID NO. 3) or the complementary sequence thereof.
