Method for analysing nucleic acids

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention concerns compositions and methods for analysing separating or sequencing nucleic acids. More particularly it concerns methods for analysing, separating or sequencing nucleic acids by electrophoresis in particular capillary, more preferably gel-free. The invention also concerns methods for treating nucleic acids or separating nucleic acids, applicable to rapid and efficient sequencing. The invention further concerns products compositions and kits for implementing said methods. The invention consists particularly in the use of a positively charged carrier molecule enabling to efficiently separate nucleic acids in solution. The invention is useful for analysing separating or …
