The present invention relates to a method for analyzing a sample. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for analyzing a sample and a method for correcting a raw data set of an amplification reaction. The present invention for analyzing a sample prevents from determining cycles based on false signals usually observed in a multitude of reactions and processes, thereby much more accurately obtaining information for analyzing a sample.

Methods and compositions for the detection and quantification of nucleic acids are provided. In certain embodiments, methods involve the use of cleavable probes that comprise a ribonucleotide position that is susceptible to endoribonuclease (e.g., RNase H) cleavage in the presence of target nucleic acid molecules. Probes of the embodiments may also comprise non-natural nucleotide linked to a reporter and/or quenching moiety.

The present invention relates to a target discriminative probe (TD probe) and its uses or applications. The TD probe is hybridized with a target nucleic acid sequence through both of the 5′-second hybridization portion and the 3′-first hybridization portion. When the TD probe is hybridized with a non-target nucleic acid sequence, both the 5′-second hybridization portion and the separation portion are not hybridized with the non-target nucleic acid sequence such that both portions form a single strand due to its low Tm value. As such, the TD probe exhibits distinctly different hybridization patterns for each of the target and the non-target nucleic acid sequence, discriminating the target nucleic acid sequence from the non-target nucleic acid sequence with much higher specificity.
