Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of detecting a DNA sequence by means of a DNA:DNA hybrid in real time using fluorescence. The present invention eliminates the need to use radioactive probes to detect the DNA and eliminates the delay needed for autoradiographic exposure of the X-ray to the radioactive label.
