FIELD: medicine; biotechnology.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to molecular biology and genetics. Disclosed is a set of oligonucleotide primers for rapid assessment by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of presence in Burkholderia thailandensis strains of a cluster of biosynthesis genes of a capsular polysaccharide highly homologous to an orthologous cluster of Burkholderia pseudomallei (Bp-like CPS) genes.
EFFECT: invention can be used in genetics and medicine to detect variant BTCV B_ thailandensis strains with extended molecular-genetic analysis of these microorganisms and rapid assessment of their possible degree of pathogenicity.
