Detection of PCR amplicons from bacterial pathogens using microsphere agglutination.
For rapid and inexpensive detection of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicons, a novel microsphere agglutination assay has been developed. PCR is carried out using biotinylated forward and reverse primers, and the amplified DNA fragments are able to agglutinate streptavidin-coated microspheres (5.7 microm in diameter). Purification of PCR amplicons is unnecessary when initial primer concentr...
متن کاملPNA molecular beacons for rapid detection of PCR amplicons.
The authors have developed a method for rapid detection of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicons based on surface immobilized PNA-DNA hybrid probes ('molecular beacons') that undergo a fluorescent-linked conformational change in the presence of a complementary DNA target. Amplicons can be detected by simply adding a PCR reaction to a microtitre-well containing the previously immobilized pro...
متن کاملIndexed PCR Primers Induce Template-Specific Bias in Large-Scale DNA Sequencing Studies.
Massively parallel sequencing is rapidly emerging as an efficient way to quantify biodiversity at all levels, from genetic variation and expression to ecological community assemblage. However, the number of reads produced per sequencing run far exceeds the number required per sample for many applications, compelling researchers to sequence multiple samples per run in order to maximize efficienc...
متن کاملSecret Lanthanides
Lanthanides are a group of 15 chemical elements which, together with their salts, have come to be used in the last decade as homoeopathic remedies. The effective introduction of lanthanides and their salts into the clinical use, as homoeopathic remedies was based on the idea of Jan Scholten, MD to relate their physicochemical properties shown in the periodic table of elements to their homoeopat...
متن کاملPrimer design versus PCR bias in methylation independent PCR amplifications.
Many protocols in methylation studies utilize one primer set to generate a PCR product from bisulfite modified template regardless of its methylation status (methylation independent amplification MIP). However, proportional amplification of methylated and unmethylated alleles is hard to achieve due to PCR bias favoring amplification of unmethylated relatively GC poor sequence. Two primer design...
