Zusammenfassung: | A method for detecting the presence of a target nucleic acid sequence in a sample, said method comprising (a) subjecting said sample to an amplification reaction using a set of nucleotides, at least one of whi ch is fluorescently labelled, (b) contacting amplification product with a probe under conditions in which the probe will hybridise to said targ et sequence, said probe comprising a reactive molecule which is able to absorb fluorescence from or donate fluorescent energy to said fluorescent labelled nucleotide and (c) monitoring fluorescence of said sample. The method can be used to quantitate the amount of target nucleic acid in the sample as well as to determine sequence characteristics. Kits for effecting the method are also claimed. |
