Rapid quantitation of DNA spot hybridization by flatbed scintillation counting.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The flatbed scintillation counting system (Betaplate) was used for quantitative measurement of the radioactive hybridization signal in detection of adenovirus and papillomavirus DNA in clinical specimens. In this method, 96 samples on a nylon membrane can be handled as a single entity throughout the hybridization and counting procedure. The technique is sensitive, rapid, and convenient in routine use when compared with conventionally applied methods for the numerical analysis of hybridization results. The assay principle allows simultaneous testing of large numbers of specimens.

Identification of defined sequences in domain V of E. coli 23S rRNA in the 50S subunit accessible for hybridization with complementary oligodeoxyribonucleotides.
The accessibility of specific sequences in domain V of E. coli 23s rRNA in the 50S subunit to complementary oligodeoxyribonucleotides (cDNA) has been investigated. The apparent percentage of subunits engaged in complex formation was determined by incubation of radiolabeled cDNA probe with 50S subunits, followed by nitrocellulose membrane filtration of the reaction mixtures and measurement of th...
متن کاملHighly Sensitive Automated Method for DNA Damage Assessment: Gamma-H2AX Foci Counting and Cell Cycle Sorting
Phosphorylation of the H2AX protein is an early step in the double strand break (DSB) repair pathway; therefore, phosphorylated histone (γH2AX) foci scoring is widely used as a measure for DSBs. Foci scoring is performed either manually or semi-automatically using hand-operated capturing and image analysis software. In general, both techniques are laborious and prone to artifacts associated wit...

متن کاملResponse of DNA thymine synthesis in human tumor and normal tissue to 5-fluorouracil.
Thymidine-methyl-3 H and either formate-' @ C or @ C were added to incubations containing various concentrations of 5-fluorouracil. The thymine in DNA was isolated, and precursor incorporation was determined by dual-label liquid scintillation counting. MATERIALS AND METHODS The methods used in this study have been previously described (12). In summary, tissues obtained from patients who had not...
