The present invention is directed to kits and methods for detecting and discriminating the target pathogens Influenza A Virus and Influenza B Virus and optionally Respiratory Syncytial Virus in a sample and to devices containing said kits and for use in said methods. The invention employs restriction enzymes, polymerase and oligonucleotide primers to produce, in the presence of a target pathogen, an amplification product which is contacted with oligonucleotide probes to produce a detector species.

The present disclosure provides methods, compounds, and systems for synthesizing a nucleic acid molecule. The methods may comprise spatially separating a set of barcoded oligonucleotides corresponding to a target nucleic acid molecule and performing a nucleic acid assembly using the oligonucleotides. A computer system coupled to a process control software program may be configured to apparatuses and configured to carry out the methods of the present disclosure.

Described herein are methods and compositions that provide highly efficient nucleic acid amplification. In some embodiments, this allows a 3-fold or greater increase of amplification product for each amplification cycle and therefore increased sensitivity and speed over conventional PCR. Modified bases can be employed in primers to provide this base-3 or greater amplification with satisfactory PCR cycle times, which are improved, as compared to those observed in the absence of modified bases.

The present invention provides a method for detecting a target nucleic acid that discriminates the target nucleic acid from a non-target nucleic acid having a nucleotide sequence or modification state that differs from a portion of the target nucleic acid, the method comprising conducting a nucleic acid amplification reaction using a region in the non-target nucleic acid that differs from the target nucleic acid as a target region, using a region in the target nucleic acid that differs from the non-target nucleic acid as a corresponding target region, using a nucleic acid test sample as a template, and using a primer that hybridizes with both the target nucleic acid and the non-target nucleic acid, with the nucleic acid amplification reaction conducted in the presence of a molecule capable of binding specifically to the target region in the non-target nucleic acid, under temperature conditions under which the molecule can bind to the non-target nucleic acid, and then detecting the target nucleic acid on the basis of the presence or absence of an amplification product.
