The invention relates to a method for labeling and fragmenting a single- or double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) comprising the following steps: chemically fragmenting the DNA by creating at least one abasic site on said DNA, attaching a marker to at least one of the fragments by means of a labeling reagent, said reagent covalently and predominantly coupling to at least one phosphate of said fragment. The invention finds a preferred application in the field of diagnosis.
