Oligonucleotides are short nucleic acid polymers used in research, genetic testing and forensics. The common example of oligonuclotides are the oligonucleotide probes which are short stretches of single-stranded DNA or RNA used to detect the presence of complementary nucleic acid sequences (target sequences) by hybridization. Oligonucleotide probes are usually labelled, for example with radioisotopes, epitopes, biotin or fluorophores to enable their detection.
