A novel method is disclosed for simultaneous detection and quantification of two or more nucleic acid targets, without need for amplification. The method depends on spectral-temporal resolution of chemiluminescence emitted from independent hybridization-induced chemiluminescent signal (HICS) probes. The utility of this method has been demonstrated by use of resolvable N-linked acridinium and 2,7-dimethoxyacridinium ester labeled probes in a homogeneous assay for sensitive and simultaneous independent quantification of several bacterial and fungal target sequences. Compositions and kits for practicing the method of the present invention are also disclosed.
