		Telomerase is now a significant factor in the fight against cancer and antiaging (1 ). It is becoming a valuable prognostic tool to determine if a particular tissue is likely to develop cancer (2 ). The ability to detect telomerase activity in patients with cancer has also been correlated with clinical staging of some tumors (3  -7  ). The regulation of telomerase and the ability to inhibit the enzyme is also an important aspect in future drug development for both anticancer and antiaging purposes (8  -11  ). Thus, the most sensitive and accurate methods are needed to detect telomerase in various sample formats.
