摘要:
Device for capturing a target molecule for the purpose of detecting it and/or assaying it, including a solid support on which is immobilized a ligand, the ligand being provided in the form of a conjugate resulting from the covalent coupling of a polymer with a plurality of molecules of the ligand. The polymer is an N-vinylpyrrolidone copolymer, and the conjugate is immobilized on the solid support by adsorption. When the ligand is capable of forming a complex with the target, the device is specific for a given target. When the device comprises, in addition, a bifunctional reagent capable of forming a complex, on the one hand, with the ligand and, on the other hand, with the target, the support on which the ligand is immobilized constitutes a universal capturing system.
摘要:
Bacteria of the genus Mycobacterium can be detected and/or identified by methods using probes including fragments of a variable region of a 23S ribosomal RNA of a species of the genus Mycobacterium or probes including DNA fragments that are obtained by reverse transcription of the RNA or that form the RNA by transcription. Primers for the reverse transcription of a variable region of a 23S ribosomal RNA sequence of mycobacteria include nucleotide sequences of a 23S RNA of a species of the genus Mycobacterium.

A method for aqueous phase nucleic acid isolation from a sample, comprising a step of nucleic acid adsorption on a particulate substrate, is disclosed. The method comprises an adsorption reagent preparation step (a) that includes a sol consisting of a aqueous continuous phase and a dispersed particulate substrate phase including a functionalized particulate polymer prepared by polymerizing (1) a first water-soluble acrylamide or acrylamide derivative monomer, (2) at least one cross-linking agent and (3) at least one second water-soluble, cationic and functional monomer, said polymer having a predetermined lower critical solubility temperature (LCST) of 25-45° C.; a contact step (b) wherein the adsorption reagent is contacted with the sample containing the nucleic acid; an adsorption step (c) wherein, to carry out the contact step (b), at least one parameter is selected for the reaction medium, said parameters being a pH no higher than 7, an ionic strength no higher than 10−2 M, and a temperature lower than the polymer LCST; a separation step (d) wherein the dispersed phase is separated from the continuous phase, optionally after it has been observed that adsorption has occurred; and a desorption step (e) wherein the nucleic acid is desorbed from the particulate substrate by increasing the ionic strength until an ionic strength higher than 10−2 M is achieved.
