摘要:
A method and system for sorting sperm samples according to different levels of DNA fragmentation and methods of using populations with low levels of DNA fragmentation to improve fertility and success rates of assisted reproductive procedures, including artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic injection, and other related techniques.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for determining DNA integrity in microorganisms and to a kit for evaluating DNA integrity in same. Since cell death results in DNA fragmentation, the inventive method can be used to determine DNA fragmentation levels in microorganisms clearly, simply, quickly and precisely.
摘要:
The present invention describes a method for the determination of DNA fragmentation in animal sperm. It particularly refers to a procedure to evaluate the integrity of the chromatin/DNA of the sperm by means of a treatment of the sample with a denaturing solution followed, optionally by a stain; a subsequent treatment with a lysis solution that does not contain a protein denaturing detergent, followed, optionally, by a stain; and an evaluation of the integrity of the chromatin/DNA. The present invention also refers to a Kit to evaluate the quality of the sperm of animals which includes a DNA denaturing solution and a lysis solution that does not contain a protein denaturing detergent.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for evaluating the integrity of the cell wall of the bacteria present in a culture in the presence of an antibiotic acting on the bacterial cell wall which, from a practical point of view, allows quickly determining if a bacterium is sensitive or resistant to an antibiotic acting on the bacterial cell wall. Likewise, the present invention also relates to a lysis solution applicable in the preceding method, specifically affecting bacteria having the cell wall damaged by the action of an antibiotic acting on the bacterial cell wall, which allows distinguishing bacteria sensitive to said antibiotic from those resistant to said antibiotic.
