In biology, a branched DNA assay is a test for specific nucleic acid chains typically used to detect Reverse transcriptase viruses such as HIV. In the assay, Branched DNA is mixed with a sample to be tested. If the branched DNA binds to viral RNA, then the luminescent compound will react, and the result can be measured via luminometer.
