Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for detecting a nucleic acid by utilizing a specific ligand-receptor binding, particularly a method for detecting a SNP by utilizing a specific ligand-receptor binding. Also disclosed is a method for detecting a nucleic acid which can be achieved readily in a single round of operation in a short time. Further disclosed is a method for detecting a nucleic acid with high sensitivity and high accuracy by utilizing a specific ligand-receptor binding reaction in a liquid/solid interface reaction. It is also possible to detect a nucleic acid can by utilizing the coagulation reaction of dispersible particles.
