Determination of PCR-RFLP Profiles for Fish Species Using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer
نویسنده
چکیده
This application note shows how the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer was used in polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) fragment analysis for fish species identification. A 464bp cytochrome-b target sequence, found in all vertebrate fish, was first amplified and then digested with restriction enzymes. The fragments were resolved on the DNA 500 LabChip®, allowing simple comparison with authentic species profiles due to the accuracy of fragment size determination. Use of the Bioanalyzer offered significant benefits over traditional gel electrophoresis and DNA staining techniques for PCR-RFLP fragment analysis.

Rapid molecular typing methods are important tools in surveillance and outbreak investigations of human Salmonella infections. Here we described the development of a three-genes PCR-RFLP typing method for the differentiation of Salmonella species, subspecies and serovars using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. The fliC, gnd, and mutS genes were PCR-amplified in 160 Salmonella strains representing t...

To avoid false positive Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) detection, caused by cross-contamination with amplicons from earlier experiments, deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) is commonly used as a substitute for deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) in PCR mastermixes. This allows the performance of a decontamination step prior to PCR amplifi cation. Analysis of PCR products on the Agilent 2100 Bioana...
