title: [Use of nucleic probes in bacteriology (1)].
abstract: After having been widely used in biological research, nucleic probes are now becoming available for the purposes of diagnosis in the clinical microbiology laboratories. Due to various technical improvements, an increasing number of kits will be provided and will allow a rapid and specific diagnosis to be carried out for bacterial agents (ie diarrhea, respiratory infections, sexually transmitted diseases...).
