Abstract
The present invention provides methods for detecting biomarkers based on Abscription®, abortive transcription technology. Particularly, the present invention provides bisulfate free methods for detecting methylation of CpG islands from small samples of DNA. The methods are suitable for multiplexing and can be used to analyze multiple CpG islands from a single sample in a short time.
