Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The existing RT-PCR method had a problem of reproducibility in the operation of DNA extraction and purification from the liquid biopsies such as saliva. The applicant established a method in which saliva was immersed and dried using water-soluble paper, and then the small piece was added directly to the solution for PCR analysis. This method is a rapid, simple, highly accurate, highly reproducible gene analysis method. Using this sample processing method, single nucleotide polymorphism and copy number polymorphism analysis methods by the TaqMan probe method were developed. Since this method uses saliva, it is minimally invasive, and the dried sample can be stored at room temperature and can also be mailed by regular mail. In order to verify its effectiveness, we conducted an alcohol metabolism related genes analysis of 206 students and reported the results in an academic journal.
