genetic probe

Gen-Probe's products are based on genetic probe technology, which is used to identify certain micro-organisms that may be present in the body.

A genetic probe is basically a short segment of DNA.

The new studies subjected the data, on three large families in Israel with many affected members, to new and extremely precise genetic probes.

A very short genetic probe is likely to match hundreds of segments on a chromosome, without proving anything, because short combinations typically appear many times.

Ingenious microarrays of genetic probes known as biochips are getting so small that you can almost hide one under a postage stamp.

The suit accuses the four companies of violating Enzo's patents related to genetic probes for detecting gonorrhea.

Because the gene might be mutated in hundreds of different ways, inexpensive genetic probes, which search and find bits of DNA identical to themselves, are ineffective.
