    摘要: Methodologies for labeling the epigenetic modification 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) along a DNA molecule, and for determining a presence or a level of this epigenetic modification based on a ratio of fluorescence intensity of a labeled DNA sample to absorption intensity of the DNA sample at 260 nm are disclosed. Related compositions and reagents, and methods of preparing same are also disclosed.
