Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for detecting one or more nascent RNAs in a tissue sample using FISH. In the method, a plurality of probes (8 to 82) may be used to detect a single species of nascent RNA. Further, a plurality of nascent RNA species may be detected simultaneously using between 8 and 82 probes for each nascent RNA. The invention comprises, in addition, methods of preparing a sample for nascent RNA detection by reducing autofluorescence of the tissue sample. These techniques may be synergistically combined to achieve significantly improved results.
