Chelex-100 resin을 넣고 끓 이는 방법은 기존의 guanidine thiocyanate 분해법이나 킬레이트 물질을 첨가하여 독성을 갖거나 인체에 유해한 시약을 사용하는 방법들과 비교하였을 때 알코올 침전 반응을 거치지 않고도 PCR에 바로 사용할 수 있는 순수한 DNA를 얻을 수 있었다.

(Received June 7, 2007/Accepted August 27, 2007) ABSTRACT : Detection of Ralstonia solanacearum with Nested PCR and DNA Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay Young-Jin Ko and Hong-Bum Cho 1 * (Department of diagnosis, Diaprobe Lab., 1 Department of Biotechnology, Seokyeong University, Seoul 136-704, Korea) In this study, we used the method of guanidin isothiocyanate and boiling with Chelex-100 resin to extract genomic DNA of Ralstonia solanacearum from soil. It is more efficient than general protocols to remove inhibitory compounds in soil and R. solanacearum own. Then, we applied polymerase chain reaction and DNA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to identify and detect pathogen. The flic gene of R. solanacearum was selected for specific detection of pathogen and primer sets were designed. Among the primer sets, two specific and sensitive primer sets, RsolfliC (forward; 5-GAACGCCAACGGTGCGAACT-3 and reverse; 5- GGCGGCCTTCAGGGAGGTC-3, designed by J. Schönfeld et al.) and RS_247 (forward; 5-GGCGGTCT- GTCGGCRG-3 and reverse; 5-CGGTCGCGTTGGCAAC-3 designed by this study), were designed to perform nested PCR. Nested PCR primer was labeled with biotin for hybridization between nested PCR product and probe to analyze with DNA ELISA.
