Abstract

Methods for the detection of nucleic acid using sandwich hybridization are provided. The target nucleic acids are captured by hybridization with oligonucleotides covalently attached to polystyrene solid supports to form complexes which are then hybridized to detection oligonucleotides to facilitate the analysis of the target nucleic acid sequences.
