Hairpin shaped hybridization probes with an internally quenched fluorophore to detect specific sequences.
Molecular Beacons are comparable with our Dual Labeled Probes. They are also available in a multitude of fluorescent dyes and quencher options. Molecular beacons, or molecular beacon probes known hybridization probes that can quenched the presence of specific nucleic acids in homogenous solutions. Beacons are hairpin like structure with an internally fluorescent dyes which act and bind to a target nucleic acid sequence.
