On the wet basis the value is the ratio of the weight of water to the total weight of the solution (1 / 5 = 20% in the example), so the moisture content is always below 100% (in the previous examples the moisture content was specified on this "moisture content wet basis"). For the moisture content dry basis the ratio of the weight of the water ...
An assay (analysis) is never an isolated process, as it must be accompanied with pre- and post-analytic procedures. Both the communication order (the request to perform an assay plus related information) and the handling of the specimen itself (the collecting, documenting, transporting, and processing done before beginning the assay) are pre-analytic steps.
High Resolution Melt (HRM) analysis is a powerful technique in molecular biology for the detection of mutations, polymorphisms and epigenetic differences in double-stranded DNA samples. It was discovered and developed by Idaho Technology and the University of Utah. [1] It has advantages over other genotyping technologies, namely:
A strip of eight PCR tubes, each containing a 100 μL reaction mixture Placing a strip of eight PCR tubes into a thermal cycler. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method widely used to make millions to billions of copies of a specific DNA sample rapidly, allowing scientists to amplify a very small sample of DNA (or a part of it) sufficiently to enable detailed study.
If the measured response is binary, the assay is quantal; if not, it is quantitative. [3] A bioassay may be used to detect biological hazards or to give an assessment of the quality of a mixture. [4] A bioassay is often used to monitor water quality as well as wastewater discharges and its impact on the surroundings. [5]
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) primers [1] Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) product [1]. In LAMP, the target sequence is amplified at a constant temperature of 60–65 °C (140–149 °F) using either two or three sets of primers and a polymerase like Bst Klenow fragment with high strand displacement activity in addition to a replication activity.
C 0 t analysis, a technique based on the principles of DNA reassociation kinetics, is a biochemical technique that measures how much repetitive DNA is in a DNA sample such as a genome. [1]
In the hybridization-ligation assay [4] [5] a template probe replaces the capture probe in the sandwich assay for immobilization to the solid support. The template probe is fully complementary to the oligonucleotide analyte and is intended to serve as a substrate for T4 DNA ligase-mediated ligation.
