  • Publication number: 20240035068
    Abstract: A method for analyzing planar sample is provided. In some cases the method comprises: (a) labelling the planar sample with a capture agent that is linked to a nucleic acid, wherein the capture agent specifically binds to complementary sites in the planar sample; (b) reading a fluorescent signal caused by extension of a primer that is hybridized to the nucleic acid, using fluorescence microscopy. Several implementations of the method, and multiplexed versions of the same, are also provided.
    Type: Application
