Zusammenfassung:The present invention is related to a pair of oligonucleotide primers for the amplification of HSV nucleic acid comprising: a) an oligonucleotide, 10-50 nucleotides in length, preferably 10-35 nucleotides in length, comprising at least a fragment of 10 nucleotides of a sequence selected from the group consisting of: 5'-ACGTTCACCAAGCTGCTGCT-3', or its complementary sequence and b) an oligonucleotide, 10-50 nucleotides in length, preferably 10-35 nucleotides in length, comprising at least a fragment of 10 nucleotides of a sequence selected from the group consisting of: 5'-CCAGGGCCCTGGAGGTGCGG-3', or its complementary sequence. The invention also relates to probes, method for amplifying an HSV DNA target, method of specific ou aspecific detection of HSV type 1 and 2 and test kit to do possible the detection of HSV. The present invention is especially useful in methods for practicing nucleic acid test.
