Direct labeling during 1 PCR cycle<br />

Relative high sensitivity (target 1–5 kb)<br />

Multiple-target detection (up to 3)<br />

High specificity and efficiency<br />

Use of primers with different<br />

Accurate DNA localization<br />

annealing temperatures<br />

Well-preserved morphology<br />

Relative accurate DNA localization Multi-target detection (up to 32)<br />

Short turnaround time (few hours)<br />

Disadvantages Limited primer elongation due to nicks Only reasonable accessibility of PCR Relative long turnaround time (1–2 days)<br />

and target DNA bound to the glass slide reagents and poor primer elongation due<br />

Relative low sensitivity (single-copy DNA) to suboptimal protein removal at the start<br />

Relative poor morphology on tissue<br />

Increasing number of PCR cycles improves<br />

Subsequent PRINS reactions needed primer elongation but also diffusion of PCR<br />

for multiple-target PRINS products. This results in:<br />

Nonspecific incorporation of labeled<br />

Low amplification efficiency, variable<br />

nucleotides (nicks, mispriming) leading reproducibility and poor DNA localization<br />

to limited signal-to-noise ratio<br />

Relative poor morphology due to heating<br />

steps in the PCR procedure<br />

Further disadvantages:<br />

Nonspecific incorporation of labeled<br />

nucleotides at nicks (direct in situ PCR) and<br />

amplification due to mispriming<br />

Only single-target detection<br />

Relative long turnaround time (1–2 days)<br />

Comments Muliple oligonuclotides and signal Signal amplification may improve Signal amplification have improved<br />

amplification have improved signal-to- signal-to-noise ratio signal-to-noise ratio and evaluation<br />

noise ratio and enabled single copy of results<br />
