Comparison of LNA™ (A) and DNA (B) probes in FISH for the human satellite-2 repeat. The use of a Cy3-labelled LNA™ substituted FISH probe results in strong hybridisation signals on chromosomes 1, 9, 15 and 16, respectively, after hybridisation for 30 min at 37°C (A), whereas no signals can be detected with the DNA FISH probe (B).
