A Microfluidic Device for Detection of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms by Allele Specific Single Base Extension
We present a microfluidic device with integrated temperature sensors and heaters for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection. The allele specific primer is immediately annealed next to the polymorphic site, and extended by a single base. The extension product is then purified by solid phase capture, and subsequently released via chemical cleavage. After desalting, the released product is...
متن کاملDiagnosis of Extrapulmonary Legionellosis in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipients by Direct 16S Ribosomal Ribonucleic Acid Sequencing and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry
Identifying extrapulmonary legionellosis is difficult due to the lack of clinical suspicion and limitations of conventional microbiologic methods. We present a case series of hematopoietic cell transplant recipients with extrapulmonary legionellosis diagnosed via molecular diagnostics: 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid gene Sanger sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms within Calcineurin-Encoding Genes are Associated with Response to Aerobic Training in Han Chinese Males
Calcineurin, which functions in calcium signaling, is expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle and has been linked to sensitivity to muscle strength training. It is also proposed to contribute to individual aerobic endurance. To investigate the relationship between calcineurin-encoding genes and aerobic endurance traits, 126 young-adult Han Chinese males were enrolled in an aerobic exercise tra...
متن کاملSingle-nucleotide polymorphism analysis by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have great potential for use in genetic-mapping studies, which locate and characterize genes that are important in human disease and biological function. For SNPs to realize their full potential in genetic analysis, thousands of different SNP loci must be screened in a rapid, accurate and cost-effective manner. Matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization-t...
متن کاملCommentary on clinical utility of whole genome sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
The present study is commentary and aims to evaluate the practical application of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in clinical microbiology. The MALDI-TOF MS method has been replaced cultural and biochemical tests for species identification in most laboratories worldwide. Moreover, WGS has elevated the ...
