Chloroplast-specific universal primers and their uses in plant studies
Universal (consensus) primers are those primers that have the ability to amplify the targeted region of DNA across a broad range of individuals in a certain group of organisms. In plants, such universal primers have been designed to target regions in the

Molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium isolates from humans and other animals using random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis [PDF]
Genetic variation in 25 Cryptosporidium isolates was analyzed using the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique. Simple reproducible polymorphisms were generated (using five primers) from Cryptosporidium DNA that was free of contaminating ...

Real-time primer design for DNA chips [PDF]
AbstractThe design of PCR or DNA chip experiments is a time‐consuming process where bioinformatics is extensively used. The selection of the primers, which are immobilized on the DNA chip, requires a complex algorithm. Based on several parameters an optimized set of primers is automatically determined for a given gene sequence.This paper describes a ...

Using long ssDNA polynucleotides to amplify STRs loci in degraded DNA samples. [PDF]
Obtaining informative short tandem repeat (STR) profiles from degraded DNA samples is a challenging task usually undermined by locus or allele dropouts and peak-high imbalances observed in capillary electrophoresis (CE) electropherograms, especially for ...

DNA Probes and Primers in Dental Practice [PDF]
In clinical microbiology, molecular genetic techniques are increasingly being used to detect and/or differentiate uncultivable, anaerobic, or fastidious microorganisms. During the past decade, DNA probe hybridization and in vitro amplification by polymerase chain reaction have also been introduced to detect oral pathogens.

Rapid generation of chromosome-specific alphoid DNA probes using the polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
Non-isotopic in situ hybridization of chromosome-specific alphoid DNA probes has become a potent tool in the study of numerical aberrations of specific human chromosomes at all stages of the cell cycle. In this paper, we describe approaches for the rapid

Composition adulteration in a product is still a serious problem. For that we need a DNA-based test method that is fast, specific and simple. In this study, a rapid test technique with the loop-mediated isothermal amplification method was applied to ...
