ABSTRACT:
A rapid, high capacity method using chaotropic agents for evaluating nucleic acids is described. Samples containing the target nucleic acid can be evaluated in a nucleic acid based sandwich hybridization assay which is performed, in part, in a chaotropic solution which is removed prior to detecting and/or quantitating the product. This assay can be used to detect and/or quantitate nucleic acid levels. It can also be used as an infectivity assay and/or as an assay to evaluate anti-infectious agent activity of compounds.
