Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT - PCR) is a major means of detection of genetically modified food, whose key is to extract high quality nucleic acid in quick and high flux. The main nucleic acid extraction method is hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and kits. Because operation of CTAB and SDS method are cumbersome, require the use of organic solvent and centrifugal unceasingly, thus can not meet the requirement of the rapid development of high throughput; and because of the high price of kit method, its application in the daily inspection is also limited. At the same time, the development trend of genetically modified detection based on nucleic acid level is multiple tests; the key is the preparation of different kinds of fluorescent microspheres and specific probe of microspheres. To solve above problems, this paper put forward nucleic acid extraction method on the basis of the magnetic separation technology.

Aims: This study was set to optimize conditions for real time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for detection of dengue virus by using rapid and simple nucleic acid extraction method. Methodology: One step and two step real time RT-PCR were evaluated in different PCR thermocyclers. Extraction of viral RNA was done by using a simple boom method. Results: The real time RT-PCR technique was successfully optimized using simple and rapid method for purification of nucleic acid, ‘boom method’. The technique works better when performed in a two-step procedure and can works well with all range of real time PCR machines. The optimized real time RT-PCR used in the present study is a valuable and reliable technique for routine diagnosis of dengue. Further investigation on the cost effectiveness in adopting this technique for routine screening and monitoring of the dengue infection should be done.

The fate of the genetically modified (GM) Pseudomonas chlororaphis strain 3732 RN-L11 and its transgene (lacZ insert) during composting of chicken manure was studied using plate count and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods. The detection sensitivity of the nested PCR method was 165 copies of the modified gene per gram of moist compost or soil. Compost microcosms consisted of a 100-g mixture of chicken manure and peat, whereas soil microcosms were 100-g samples of sandy clay loam. Each microcosm was inoculated with 4 × 1010CFU of P. chlororaphis RN-L11. In controlled temperature studies, neither P. chlororaphis RN-L11 nor its transgene could be detected in compost microcosms after incubation temperature was elevated to 45 °C or above for one or more days. In contrast, in the compost microcosms incubated at 23 °C, the target organism was not detected by the plate count method after 6 days, but its transgene was detectable for at least 45 days. In compost bins, the target organism was not recovered from compost microcosms or soil microcosms at different levels in the bins for 29 days. However, the transgene was detected in 8 of the 9 soil microcosms and in only 1 of the 9 compost microcosms. The compost microcosm in which transgene was detected was at the lower level of the bin where temperatures remained below 45 °C. The findings indicated that composting of organic wastes could be used to reduce or degrade heat sensitive GM microorganisms and their transgenes.Key words: composting, genetically modified Pseudomonas strain, transgene, polymerase chain reaction.
