Method for detecting cystic fibrosis

Abstract

The present invention relates to methods for simultaneously determining the presence or absence of mutations, deletions, duplications and single nucleotide polymorphisms in a cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) nucleic acid. Oligonucleotide primers and kits used to amplify regions of a CFTR nucleic acid for high throughput, massively parallel sequencing and methods of determining an individual's cystic fibrosis status are also disclosed.
