title: The removal of fluorescence in sequencing-by-synthesis.
abstract: Fluorescent oligonucleotides provide useful way to study DNA during the sequencing-by-synthesis process. They allow researchers to determine the sequence of a short DNA strand. Fluorescence created by these chemicals must be removed after a few based pairs are read in order to continue reading the DNA sequence. Researchers have developed a variety of methods to solve this problem. This paper reviews the development of fluorescence removal in DNA sequencing and summarizes several methods of removing the fluorescence.
