DNA Fingerprinting in Horse using Three Probes

DNA Fingerprinting in Camels (Camelus dromedarius) Using Microsatellite Oligo Probes

Oligonucleotide probes specific for simple tandem repeat sequences produce individual specific DNA fingerprints in man and all animal species so far. In the present investigation (r)-p labeled oligonucleotide probes (GTG)5, (GT)8 and (GGAT)4 were used as multilocus probes to detect hypervariable microsatellites in the Indian dromedary camel population. Oligo probes were radiolabelled and hybrid...

Using DNA Probes

DNA amplification fingerprinting using two long primers.

DNA-based techniques have great potential for detecting genetic variability between genotypes. However, each approach generates different molecular markers, so the kind and amount of polymorphism detected and the cost and time required vary among them. In general, a good method for DNA fingerprinting to detect genetic polymorphism must generate a complex pattern of bands per experiment, the res...

Universal microbial diagnostics using random DNA probes

Early identification of pathogens is essential for limiting development of therapy-resistant pathogens and mitigating infectious disease outbreaks. Most bacterial detection schemes use target-specific probes to differentiate pathogen species, creating time and cost inefficiencies in identifying newly discovered organisms. We present a novel universal microbial diagnostics (UMD) platform to scre...
