METHOD AND KIT FOR THE DETECTION OF THE RESPONSE OF AN ORGANISM TO A CHEMICAL SUBSTANCE BY DETECTING RESPONSIVE GENES

摘要

This invention provides methods or another transcription product and kits for the chemiluminescent detection of mRNA transcribed from genetic material in response to exposure of an organism, cell or genetic assembly to a chemical or physical change in its environment. These exposures result in an alteration in the level of activity of genes or transcription pathways responsive to such changes in such a way that the amount of mRNA associated with this activity changes.
