1 Basic Principles Differential primer annealing in competitive oligopriming is achieved by the use of three primers of DNA synthesis instead of two, in one polymerase chain reaction. A pair of competitive oligonucleotides is used as forward primers and the third primer is serving as a common reverse one, for the respective PCR. The mismatching is formed within the forward primer, usually in the middle, but in some cases is formed at the 3Ј end of the forward primer, as is the case of ARMS but in the competitive oligopriming setting, that is by using two competitive forward primers.

The membrane is then washed at the appropriate stringency to dissociate any probe molecules that are not perfectly matched to the target. , 1986). , 1988b). Following stringency washes, the probe-target hybrid is detected using streptavidin conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The HRP activity can then be detected using a colorimetric detection with tetramethylbenzidine and hydrogen peroxide. Alternatively, the HRP activity can be detected using chemiluminescent substrates. The forward ASO format is most useful when large numbers of samples are being screened for a small number of mutant alleles.
