METHOD FOR DETECTING GENE AFFECTED BY ENDOCRINE DISRUPTOR

摘要

A method for detecting a gene affected by an endocrine disruptor characterized by comprising preparing a nucleic acid sample containing mRNAs originating in cells, tissues or organisms, which have been brought into contact with a sample containing the endocrine disruptor, or cDNAs thereof; hybridizing the nucleic acid sample with DNA alleys wherein genes which might be affected by the endocrine disruptor or DNA fragments originating in these genes have been fixed; and then comparing the thus obtained results with the results obtained by using another nucleic acid sample originating in a comparative sample to thereby select the gene affected by the endocrine disruptor.
