Abstract
Kit for detecting a specific target nucleic acid sequence using a labeled probe with signal amplification, which comprises in containers (i) a probe labeled with a tracer (ii) a suspension of insoluble particles on which are immobilized at least one series of oligonucleotide units all of which are identical and contain at least one sequence that specifically hybridize with the target nucleic acid sequence and at one sequence that specifically hybridize with tracer labeled probe. A method using the kit is also described.
