Furan-PNA : a mildly inducible irreversible interstrand crosslinking system targeting single and double stranded DNA [PDF]
We here report on the design and synthesis of tailor-made furan-modified peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes for covalent targeting of single stranded DNA through a crosslinking strategy.

Influence of the environment and probes on rapid DNA sequencing via transverse electronic transport [PDF]
We study theoretically the feasibility of using transverse electronic transport within a nanopore for rapid DNA sequencing. Specifically, we examine the effects of the environment and detection probes on the distinguishability of the DNA bases.

A Technical Note on Quantum Dots for Multi-Color Fluorescence in situ Hybridization [PDF]
Quantum dots (Qdots) are semiconductor nanocrystals, which are photo-stable, show bright fluorescence with narrow, symmetric emission spectra and are available in multiple resolvable colors.

DNA probe for Aeromonas salmonicida [PDF]
A DNA fragment that is specific to Aeromonas salmonicida has been isolated from a genomic DNA library by differential hybridization. The specificity of this fragment as a DNA probe for A. salmonicida was shown by hybridization against reference strains and clinical isolates of A. salmonicida, related aeromonads, and species from several other bacterial

DNA fingerprinting and cloning of hypervariable minisatellite repeats in salmonids [PDF]
We used heterologous jeffreys' 33.6 core sequence and microsatellites (CAC)(5) and (CA)(12) as probes and compared them with probes based on the minisatellite sequences from tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in ...

DNA Stable-Isotope Probing (DNA-SIP) [PDF]
DNA stable-isotope probing (DNA-SIP) is a powerful technique for identifying active microorganisms that assimilate particular carbon substrates and nutrients into cellular biomass. As such, this cultivation-independent technique has been an important methodology for assigning metabolic function to the diverse communities inhabiting a wide range of ...

A strategy for the characterization of minute chromosome rearrangements using multiple color fluorescence in situ hybridization with chromosome-specific DNA libraries and YAC clones [PDF]
The identification of marker chromosomes in clinical and tumor cytogenetics by chromosome banding analysis can create problems. In this study, we present a strategy to define minute chromosomal rearrangements by multicolor fluorescence in situ ...
