Abstract

The present invention provides a rapid and sensitive method for assaying nucleic acids by means of hybridization techniques, wherein the detector probes are modified primers being incorporated into copies of the target nucleic acid before the hybridization reaction and a reagent combination as well as a kit therefor. The invention also provides a method for assaying nucleic acids by means of hybridization techniques, wherein the capturing probes are modified primers being incorporated into copies of the target nucleic acids before the hybridization reaction.
