The present invention relates to a method so called Bacterial Digitalcode
System (BaDis) that identifies microorganism by using bacterial-specific,
genus-specific and species-specific oligonucleotides from a variety of
samples or specimens for detection and differential diagnosis of
microorganism. Particularly, the present invention relates to
bacterial-specific, genus-specific and species-specific oligonucleotides
designed by the target nucleotide sequences of 23S rDNA or ITS gene,
polymerase chain reaction (hereinafter, referred to as "PCR") kits using
the oligonucleotides as a primer, the microarray containing the
oligonucleotides as a probe, and methods for detecting microorganism by
using the oligonucleotides. Therefore, the present invention can be
applied to detect the presence of microorganism and diagnose
differentially all microorganism such as pathogenic bacteria of
infectious diseases, bacteria inducing food poisoning, bacteria
contaminating biomedical products and environmental pollutants.
