least one
single-
stranded
conformati
on when
unhybridiz
ed where
the
quencher
molecule is
near
enough to
the reporter
molecule to
quench the
fluorescenc
e of the
reporter
molecule.
The
oligonucleo
tide probe
also exists
in at least
one
conformati
on when
hybridized
to a target
polynucleot
ide where


the
quencher
molecule is
not
positioned
close
enough to
the reporter
molecule to
quench the
fluorescenc
e of the
reporter
molecule.
By
adopting
these
hybridized
and
unhybridiz
ed
conformati
ons, the
reporter
molecule
and
quencher
molecule
on the
probe
exhibit


different
fluorescenc
e signal
intensities
when the
probe is
hybridized
and
unhybridiz
ed. As a
result, it is
possible to
determine
whether the
probe is
hybridized
or
unhybridiz
ed based on
a change in
the
fluorescenc
e intensity
of the
reporter
molecule,
the
quencher
molecule,
or a
combinatio


n thereof.
In addition,
because the
probe can
be
designed
such that
the
quencher
molecule
quenches
the reporter
molecule
when the
probe is not
hybridized,
the probe
can be
designed
such that
the reporter
molecule
exhibits
limited
fluorescenc
e until the
probe is
either
hybridized
or digested.

sufficient
to cause the

a distance
preferably
greater
than one-

preferably
about one

Preferably
the
magnetic
assembly
has a
depth-of-

least about
120 gauss
at a
distance of
one inch. A
metallic
plate is
arranged in
mating


configurati

magnetic
assembly.
Mating
pins may
be
provided,
as well as
indexing
pins. If the
manikin is
knocked
over, or if
the
attached
part is
pulled or
bumped, it
will come
loose rather
than
breaking
off; and the
mating
parts are
self-

use, so that
they will
come


together in
proper
orientation
even when
being
mated
beneath
clothes. A
bump to
the
manikin
sufficient
to
overcome
the on-

strength of
the
magnetic
attachment
may not
result in
detachment
of the limb
because of
the depth-

strength of
the
magnetic
assembly.


The
indexing
pins allow
the limbs to
be placed
in a variety
