The invention relates to extracorporeal methods of analyzing the presence or absence of mutations which cause familial hypercholesterolemia. The inventive methods describe the way in which said mutations can be detected using a DNA sample from an individual and comprising the following: chain reaction of the polymerase with primers which are complementary to the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene; analysis of the amplified product by sequencing; restriction analysis; single strand conformation polymorphism techniques; heteroduplex analysis and analysis of a device on top of a biochip glass support on which oligonucleotide probes are disposed, which can be used to detect the aforementioned mutations in the DNA.
摘要:
An automatic gravity-actuated plant watering system receives quantities of water from a supply, collects a predetermined amount, discharges and distributes the same whenever the collected quantities of water reach the predetermined amount. Metering means are provided to regulate the quantity of water flow per unit time, and gravity-actuated cleaning means are used to prevent contaminants from obstructing the fluid flow.
