ABSTRACT:
Methods and compositions for selectively detecting analytes in a homogeneous assay, a heterogeneous assay, or a mixture of the two by contacting a labeled probe:analyte complex with one or more amphiphiles. The invention is also useful for increasing the signal to noise ratio when used in conjunction with other assay systems. In preferred embodiments, the analyte and probe are nucleic acids or proteins.
