A target nucleic acid can be amplified and detected using a water-insoluble capture probe having a short oligonucleotide (15-20 nucleotides) covalently attached to a polymeric particle, and one or more secondary oligonucleotides. The capture probe and secondary oligonucleotides are complementary to the target nucleic acid, although the sequences of complementarity are different. Moreover, each of the secondary oligonucleotides has a length which is equal to or greater than the length of the capture probe oligonucleotide. The secondary oligonucleotides are hybridized to the target nucleic acid either before or during hybridization of the target to the capture probe. The result is improved hybridization efficiency of capture probe and target nucleic acid.
使用水不溶性捕获探针可扩增和检测目标核酸,捕获探针具有共价连接到聚合物颗粒上的短寡核苷酸(15-20 个核苷酸)和一个或多个辅助寡核苷酸。捕获探针和二级寡核苷酸与靶核酸互补,但互补序列不同。此外,每个辅助寡核苷酸的长度等于或大于捕获探针寡核苷酸的长度。二级寡核苷酸在目标核酸与捕获探针杂交之前或期间与目标核酸杂交。其结果是提高了捕获探针和靶核酸的杂交效率。
