Quantification of DNA Using the Luminescent Oxygen Channeling Assay

Abstract

This is the first report of the use of an oligomer-labeled latex particle assay capable of producing DNA quantification and sequence-specific chemiluminescent signals in a homogeneous format. It is also the first report of the generation of two signals from a LOCI assay. The methods described here have been shown to be easily adaptable to new DNA targets because of the generic nature of the oligomer-labeled LOCI particles.
