NUCLEIC ACID DETECTION CASSETTE

摘要

In this nucleic acid detection cassette, a designated syringe is squeezed such that a sample solution is provided via a channel to an amplification unit, and the amplification unit is heated by an external unit such that sample DNA in the sample solution is amplified. The sample solution containing the amplification product is provided via a channel to a detection unit, where a hybridization reaction occurs. Next, a separate syringe is squeezed such that a liquid containing an intercalating agent is provided to the detection unit via a separate designated channel. As a result, a nucleic acid detection cassette that can automate nucleic acid detection of a sample from amplification to detection by electrochemical reaction is provided.
