CONTROLS FOR NUCLEIC ACID TESTING

摘要

The present invention is related to a method for detecting a target biomolecule in test sample by adding an internal control biomolecule to the test sample; to a negative control sample, to a positive control sample and to a reagent control sample or adding an internal control biomolecule to the test sample, to a negative control sample, to a positive control sample comprising the target biomolecule and providing a reagent control sample comprising the target biomolecule, determining in each sample a signal, and verifying the signal thereby detecting the target biomolecule. The invention is also related to a method for verifying the determination of a signal indicating the presence of a target biomolecule. The invention is further related to a method for detecting the presence or the absence of a member of a group of target nucleic acids in a sample and a method for verifying the determination of a signal indicating the presence of a member of a group of target nucleic acids. Uses and kits are considered as well.
