  • METHOD AND KIT FOR DETECTING AND/OR QUANTIFYING A TARGET NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE
    Publication number: 20210301330
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for detecting and/or quantifying a target nucleotide sequence (3) in a sample comprising the steps of: providing the target nucleotide sequence (3) as a single strand; hybridizing said target nucleotide sequence (3) with a first probe (1) of single strand nucleic acid and with a second probe (2) of single strand nucleic acid, the first probe (1) being immobilised at one end to a solid support (4) and comprising, at the opposite end, a sequence complementary to a first portion (5) of the target nucleotide sequence (3), the second probe (2) being marked at one end and comprising, at the opposite end, a sequence complementary to a second portion (6) of target nucleotide sequence (3), wherein the first portion (5) and the second portion (6) of target nucleotide sequence have 2 to 10 nucleotides in common, so as to form a first probe-target nucleotide sequence-second probe complex; and detect the complex. The present invention also concerns a kit for use in the method.
