1. A method of detecting the presence of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in a sample comprising:

  • amplifying a first target sequence comprising SEQ ID NO;

    1 and a second target sequence comprising SEQ ID NO;

    6;

    hybridising the first target sequence to a nucleic acid probe comprising SEQ ID NO;

    3 and a ferrocene label;

    hybridising the second target sequence to a nucleic acid probe comprising SEQ ID NO;

    8 and a ferrocene label; and

    identifying the occurrence of hybridisation by detecting the state of the labelled probes, wherein said step of amplifying the first target sequence and the second target sequence uses the polymerase chain reaction and involves the use of forward primers consisting of SEQ ID NOs;

    4 and 9 and reverse primers consisting of SEQ ID NOs;

    5 and 10.
