A Simple and Rapid Leaf Genomic DNA Extraction Method for Polymerase Chain Reaction Analysis
In plants, secondary metabolites and polysaccharides interfere with genomic isolation procedures and downstream reactions such as restriction enzyme analysis and gene amplification. The removal of such contaminants needs complicated and time-consuming protocols. In this study, a simple, rapid and efficient method for leaf DNA extraction was optimized. This method use small amount of plant mater...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Droplet Digital Polymerase Chain Reaction Format for DNA Copy Number Quantification
Droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) is a new technology that was recently commercialized to enable the precise quantification of target nucleic acids in a sample. ddPCR measures absolute quantities by counting nucleic acid molecules encapsulated in discrete, volumetrically defined, water-in-oil droplet partitions. This novel ddPCR format offers a simple workflow capable of generat...
متن کاملPlasmid Copy Number Determination by Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction
Recombinant therapeutic proteins are biopharmaceutical products that develop rapidly for years. Recombinant protein production in certain hosts requires vector expression harboring the gene encoding the corresponding protein. Escherichia coli is the prokaryote organism mostly used in recombinant protein production, commonly using a plasmid as the expression vector. Recombinant protein productio...
متن کاملComparison of quantitative competitive polymerase chain reaction-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with LightCycler-based polymerase chain reaction for measuring cytomegalovirus DNA in patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Development of highly sensitive quantitative assays for cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA detection is crucial for identification of immunodeficient patients at high risk of CMV disease. We designed 2 internally controlled competitive quantitative assays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, using amplification of the same segment of the C...
متن کاملSPECIFIC AMPLIFICATION OF ASPERGILLUS FUMlGATUS DNA BY POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION
Invasive aspergillosis (1 is a life-threatening condition in immunocompromised patients. An early diagnosis is of great importance because early treatment may resolve this potentially fatal infection. Recently, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used successfully in detecting specific DNA of several pathogen. In this study, nested PCR was used to detect DNA specific for A!.pergiflus s...
