Abstract

Hybridization of nucleic acids is a reversible process by which single-stranded nucleic acids are allowed to interact in a sequence-specific manner to form complexes or hybrids. Assays which are based on nucleic acid hybridization are widely utilized in the research and clinical laboratory settings in order to detect and/or quantify specific nucleic acid sequences within samples or specimens.
