Methods and compositions for sequence-specific purification and multiplex analysis of nucleic acids
摘要
Methods and materials for determining the presence of at least one nucleic acid in a sample are provided, said methods comprising (1) a purification step using sequence specific hybrid capture; (2) an amplification step; and (3) a detection step comprising contacting the target nucleic acid with a plurality of detectably labeled nucleic acid detection probes, wherein each (a) bears a different detectable label from the other detection probes, and/or (b) has a different melting temperature from probes bearing the same detectable label. Also disclosed are compositions and kits for use in such a method.
