The use of a labeled probe to detect and localize specific RNA or DNA sequences in tissue samples is known as Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technique. ASO (allele-specific oligonucleotide) is used for SNP detection, PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is used for amplification of DNA sequences, and qPCR (quantitative PCR) is used to quantify DNA or RNA in a sample.
