Abstract
Some technical tips are described on how to improve the discrimination betw een perfect and imperfect duplexes formed by hybridization of fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides to biological microchips. Model experiments were performed to assess the precision of the method. Effects of labeling on the efficiency of hybridization and some properties of competitive hybridizati on were studied using short synthetic oligonucleotides and three most popul ar fluorochromes as examples.
