ABSTRACT:
A method for preparing a nucleic acid probe is provided. The method comprises forming an activated cytosine or cytidine by a bisulfite catalyzed reaction; and covalently linking a reporter molecule to the activated cytosine or cytidine, wherein said activating step, said covalently linking step, or both are conducted in the presence of microwave energy. Also provided by the invention are nucleic acid probes.
