The analysis cell of the present invention includes: a main substrate: a sample inlet cover member; and a gas outlet cover member. The main substrate includes a flow path, an inlet for a sample, and a gas outlet, and the inlet and the gas outlet communicate with an outside. The inlet communicates with an upstream end portion of the flow path and the gas outlet communicates with a downstream end portion of the flow path. The flow path has a shape that expands from an upstream side toward a downstream side of the flow path. The sample inlet cover member is a liquid-tight member and can be fixed to the inlet when the sample inlet cover member is in use. The gas outlet cover member is a liquid-tight and gas-permeable member and can be fixed to the gas outlet when the gas outlet cover member is in use.

摘要: The present invention is to provide a method for analyzing a target nucleic acid, by which the target nucleic acid can be analyzed rapidly and easily. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for analyzing a target nucleic acid in a sample, including the step of: analyzing the target nucleic acid in the sample by bringing the sample into contact with a label and with a primer or probe that can hybridize to the target nucleic acid. The primer or probe is immobilized on a solid phase. The label does not emit light when the primer or probe does not hybridize to the target nucleic acid, whereas the label emits light when the primer or probe has hybridized to the target nucleic acid. The analysis is carried out by detecting the light emitted from the label.

摘要: The present invention provides a method for accurately analyzing a template nucleic acid. The method is a method for analyzing a template nucleic acid including: an amplification step of amplifying a target sequence in the template nucleic acid and a complementary sequence to the target sequence; and a detection step of detecting association between a probe and an amplification product obtained in the amplification step or dissociation of an assembly between the probe and the amplification product with a temperature change. A primer set is used in the amplification step, and the primer set is a combination of a first primer for a polymerase that performs priming at the 3′ end of a primer to synthesize the target sequence and a second primer for the polymerase to synthesize the complementary strand. Between the first primer and the second primer, a primer that initiates synthesis of a sequence to be hybridized with the probe is a turnback primer including a primer region and a probe region being directly or indirectly linked to the 5′ end of the primer region, and the other primer is any primer having an ability of causing the polymerase to perform priming at the 3′ end. In the amplification step, the turnback primer extends the target sequence or the complementary sequence from the primer region. In the detection step, the turnback primer also serves as the probe, and association between the probe region and the target sequence or the complementary sequence, occurred by turning the probe region of the turnback primer in a molecule of the amplification product back toward the extended target sequence or the extended complementary sequence, is detected

摘要: The present invention is intended to provide a novel fluorescent labeled single-stranded nucleic acid, by which the background of an exciton oligomer can be further reduced and the novel use thereof. The present invention relates to a labeled single-stranded nucleic acid having at least two fluorescent atomic group pairs that exhibit an exciton effect. The labeled single-stranded nucleic acid is characterized in that the emission peak wavelength of one of the fluorescent atomic group pairs (fluorescent atomic group pair A) is shorter than the excitation peak wavelength of the other fluorescent atomic group pair (fluorescent atomic group pair B), and the fluorescent atomic group pairs A and B have a Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) effect. This fluorescent labeled single-stranded nucleic acid is usable as a primer for amplifying a target nucleic acid or a probe to be hybridized with a target nucleic acid.
