Abstract
A method for detecting a nucleic acid hybrid comprises steps of adding a nucleic acid probe into a sample solution containing a targeted nucleic acid, and detecting a double helical structure of a hybrid formed between the probe and the targeted nucleic acid, wherein the step for detecting the double helical structure comprises incorporating, into the sample solution, two or more kinds of reagents which are capable of causing a detectable change by interaction therebetween through the double helical structure and measuring the change caused by the interaction of the reagents; and at least one of the two or more kinds of reagents is joined to the probe.
