ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus and method for nucleic acid base sequencing by annealing a primer to a nucleic acid template, extending the primer and direct step-wise detecting of incorporated bases, without the use of nucleic acid fragments, extrinsic labeling or electrophoresis, the apparatus described by employing a simple rotary valve system to generate sequential growth of a molecular chain, a laser beam and detection system for determining the amount of native fluorescence quenched in an aliquot of reaction mixture solution as each nucleotide species is extracted from a reactant solution and incorporated into the growing chain.
