A ferrofluid-based homogeneous assay for highly sensitive and selective detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple and low-cost colorimetric assay utilizing ferrofluidic nanoparticulate probes (FNPs) and a ligase for single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping is described. Excellent sensitivity and selectivity were accomplished through the engagement of the FNPs and a ligase chain reaction.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Association Studies: A Few Critical Points
Uncovering DNA sequence variations that correlate with phenotypic changes, e.g., diseases, is the aim of sequence variation studies. Common types sequence variations are Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip).SNPs are the third-generation molecular marker. SNP represents a DNA sequence variant of a single base pair with the minor allele occurring in more than 1% of a given popula...

Background: The bovine AGPAT6 gene is one of the potential candidate genes governing milk fat synthesis.Objectives: Identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the targeted region of AGPAT6 gene and their effect on expected breeding values (EBV) of first lactation milk production traits viz. fat %, fat yield and 305 days milk yield in Karan Fries (KF) breeding bulls were so...
متن کاملA novel label-free cocaine assay based on aptamer-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes
Objective(s): This paper describes a selective and sensitive biosensor based on the dissolution and aggregation of aptamer wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes. We report on the direct detection of aptamer–cocaine interactions, namely between a DNA aptamer and cocaine molecules based on near-infrared absorption at λ807. Materials and Methods: First a DNA aptamer recognizing cocaine was non-co...
متن کاملApplication of Thionine Dye for Highly Sensitive and Selective Catalytic kinetic Determination of Osmium
Anew, highly sensitive and selective catalytic kinetic method (CKM) for determination of osmium (VIII) has been established based on its catalytic effect on the oxidation of thionine dye by hydrogen peroxide in alkaline medium. The reaction has been followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance band of thionine at 600 nm. Under the optimum conditions, the proposed ...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) of GDF9 Gene in Bahmaei and Lak Ghashghaei Sheep Breeds and Its Association with Litter Size
Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) belong to the superfamily of transforming growth factor β that is highly expressed in growing ovarian follicles of oocyte, and it has been strongly related to fecundity traits in sheep. Therefore, the GDF9 gene could serve as a genetic marker for improvement of reproductive performance in sheep. Therefore, the aim of this study was to invest...
