摘要： A Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography method and system for size-based segregation of a mixture of RNA molecules. The method includes applying the mixture to a polymeric separation medium having non-polar surfaces and eluting the RNA molecules with a mobile phase which includes counterion reagent and an organic component. The preferred surfaces are characterized by being substantially free from multivalent cations which are free to interfere with RNA segregation. The elution is preferably performed at a temperature sufficient to denature the RNA. The method can be used in segregating RNA molecules having lengths in the range of about 100 to 20,000 nucleotides. Improved segregation is obtained using a chromatography column having an ID greater than about 5 mm. Examples of separation media include beads and monolithic columns.

摘要： A method and apparatus for representing double stranded nucleic acid fragments which have been separated by a chromatographic process as an array of bands which can be accurately quantified, optimized and stored. Using, for example, a Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography (MIPC) process, an analog output from a UV detector is digitized and input to a computer. The digitized signal is converted to a linear array of bands which may be displayed on a video display terminal. The intensity and/or color of a band may correlate to the amount of double stranded nucleic acid in the respective fraction or the respective double stranded nucleic acid fragment above a user selected threshold level at a corresponding point in the digitized signal. The calculated base pair length, concentration, and retention time of each band in the array of bands may be displayed in alphanumeric form.

摘要： Mixtures of dsDNA fragments are separated by Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography (MIPC) using an isocratic mobile phase to elute polynucleic acid from an MIPC column. The use of isocratic elution conditions provides a marked improvement in the separation of dsDNA fragments compared to gradient elution conditions. Isocratic elution can also be used to effect an improved separation of heteroduplex and homoduplex mixtures when the chromatography is performed under partially denaturing conditions. In addition, dsDNA fragments are bound to the stationary phase under isocratic conditions until a solvent concentration is reached which releases fragments of a particular base pair length range. This separation process is different from the equilibrium partitioning process observed under gradient elution conditions.

摘要： The present invention provides a method for calibrating a MIPC column wherein the calibration relates to the determination of the organic solvent component in the mobile phase required to elute dsDNA fragments of different base pair lengths at specific retention times. Since a MIPC column affords highly reproducible separations, once calibrated, the base pair length of unknown dsDNA fragments can be determined by comparing their retention times to those obtained on a standard calibration chromatogram. The standard calibration chromatogram is obtained by chromatographing a standard dsDNA ladder containing fragments of known base pair length. In addition, a method is provided to determine the presence of nicks in dsDNA using MIPC under fully denaturing conditions, e.g., 80° C. In one embodiment, this method is applied to the detection of mutations in dsDNA.
