Title: [An oligonucleotide microarray for detection and discrimination of orthopoxviruses based on oligonucleotide sequences of two viral genes].
Abstract: An oligonucleotide microarray for detection and identification of orthopoxviruses was developed. Genus specific and orthopoxvirus species-specific regions of the genes encoding chemokine binding and alpha/beta-interferon binding proteins were used as a target. The developed microarray allows the variola, monkeypox, cowpox, vaccinia, camel-pox and ectromelia (mousepox) viruses to be distinguished with a high degree of reliability.
