Abstract
A method for detecting a target nucleic acid comprises the steps of reacting a sample with a probe in the presence of two or more kinds of reagents capable of being made an irreversible change capable of being detected and accumulating by an interaction through a double helix structure under a condition enabling the replication of the formation and dissociation of a hybrid composed of the target nucleic acid in the sample and the probe, accumulating the irreversible change caused by the interaction of the reagents, and then detecting the accumulated change.
