METHOD FOR DIRECT CAPTURE OF RIBONUCLEIC ACID

摘要

A method of: providing a solid surface having a dendrimer molecule bound thereto and a single-stranded probe nucleic acid immobilized to the dendrimer; contacting the solid surface with a sample suspected or known to contain a target ribonucleic acid; denaturing the target ribonucleic acid; and incubating the sample to allow hybridization of the denatured ribonucleic acid to the probe nucleic acids. The target ribonucleic acid is complementary to the probe nucleic acid.
