We describe a rapid method for visually determining specific DNA sequences at femtomole concentrations. Liposomes, encapsulating a red dye and labeled with oligonucleotide, were used in a capillary migration-sandwich hybridization assay. Capture probe was immobilized on nitrocellulose strips, and liposomes, migrating along each strip, formed a visually discernible band in the presence of target DNA. One femtomole of synthetic target sequence could be detected in < 10 min. Sufficiently stringent hybridization conditions can be used to allow the discrimination of a 10% mismatch sequence from perfectly complementary DNA. A 366-base PCR product was detected at 200 fmol.
