These results may be attributed to the site competition of MMC with the probe and electron transfer between MMC and probe. MMC also increases polarization degree of the probe by covalent drug-DNA or DNA-drug-DNA crosslinking.展开更多

The obtained differential gDNA fragments by SSH were then hybridized with gDNA ar- rays consisting of multiple whole genomes of several species (adulterants and/or closely related species of F. muhiflora) and four differential fragments were screened uniquely representing F. muhiflora, which could be used as F. muhiflora species-specific probes. The screened DNA probes were tested by reverse dot blot hybridization and the results demonstrated that these probes could be used reliably to identify F, muhiflora. The species-specific DNA probes obtained in this study exhibited broad application prospects in the preparation of gene chips for identifying Chinese traditional medicines and the authentication of germplasm re- sources and crude drugs of F. muhiflora.展开更多

Fifteen samples showed to be positive (including one positive specimen examined by microscopy) when this probe was applied to detect the 274 samples and its positivity rate was 5.47 percent.The positive coincidence rate between pPF14-F-Dig and microscopic examination was 1/1 and the negative coincidence rate was 94.87 percent. Since a piece of nitrocellulose membrane with the size of 9 by 12 square centimetres can accommodate blots of 96 samples,this probe is fit for large-scale epidemiological surveys.展开更多
