Methods for the rapid detection of the presence or absence of Hepatitis Delta Virus (HDV) in a biological or non-biological sample are described. The methods can include performing an amplifying step, a hybridizing step, and a detecting step. Furthermore, primers, probes targeting the HDV Ribozyme domain and the HDV Hepatitis Delta Antigen (HDAg) gene, along with kits are provided that are designed for the detection of HDV. |
