ABSTRACT:
The invention provides fast and highly accurate mass spectrometer based processes for detecting a particular nucleic acid sequence in a biological sample. Depending on the sequence to be detected, the processes can be used, for example, to diagnose (e.g. prenatally or postnatally) a genetic disease or chromosomal abnormality; a predisposition to a disease or condition (e.g. obesity, artherosclerosis, cancer), or infection by a pathogenic organism (e.g. virus, bacteria, parasite or fungus).
