Assay methods for nucleic acid in a sample

The present invention relates to a method for the determination of the presence and amount of DNA in a sample. The method is based on the use of a nucleic acid template dependent enzyme in combination with a random primer to generate an enzymatic product which incorporates a binding species and a de...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method for the determination of the presence and amount of DNA in a sample. The method is based on the use of a nucleic acid template dependent enzyme in combination with a random primer to generate an enzymatic product which incorporates a binding species and a detectable species covalently linked.
