PCR PRIMERS FOR DETECTION OF VIBRIO PARAHAEMOLYTICUS THERMOSTABLE DIRECT HEMOLYSIN (TDH) AND TDH-RELATED HEMOLYSIN GENES

摘要

Disclosed are PCR primers as may be utilized in detection of the genes encoding the thermostable direct hemolysin (tdh) and the TDH-related hemolysin (trh). The PCR primers can be utilized to detect the presence of pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus in a test sample. Also disclosed are methods for utilizing the PCR primers and kits that include the PCR primers.
