USE OF AN EXTRACTION CONTROL IN A METHOD OF EXTRACTING NUCLEIC ACIDS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of ensuring the effectiveness of the extraction workup from a biological sample of nucleic acid. The inventive method is able to distinguish between possible defects in the extraction of nucleic acid from a sample and possible defects in a subsequent amplification step. The present invention also relates to a packaged array for extracting nucleic acid from a biological sample.
