Abstract
An object of the present invention is to establish a method for amplifying an RNA in a biologically-derived sample by preparing a reaction solution in which a nucleic acid synthesis is not inhibited even in the presence of various biologically-derived impurities and as well as to enable a convenient, rapid and highly sensitive analysis of the RNA in the sample. In a method of the present invention, a reaction solution having a pH higher than that of an ordinarily employed reaction solution and/or containing a polyamine and/or a sulfated polysaccharide.
