ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to methods for using volume exclusion agents to enhance in situ hybridization rates between short oligonucleotide probes and their target polynucleotides where the cells containing the target polynucleotides are adhered onto a glass substrate. In one aspect, the invention specifically relates to the use of volume exclusion agents to facilitate assay and diagnostic procedures for the detection of a virus, such as human papillomavirus (HPV). In addition, diagnostic kits embracing the above methods are described herein.
