Abstract

The invention relates to a gel-based preservation method for polymerase chain reaction agent and reaction reagent, and the method is realized through the steps that one or more components of polymerase chain reaction liquid is / are embedded in gel for preservation, wherein the melting point of the gel is lower than the inactivation temperature of polymerase used for polymerase chain reaction. In addition, the invention further includes the reaction reagent and a kit both can be stored and transported at normal temperature. The polymerase chain reaction reagent treated by the method disclosed by the invention can be stored and transported at normal temperature, can be used directly without any special treatment. As being in solid state after treatment, the treated polymerase chain reaction reagent mixture can be transported by air conveniently, and the difficulty that the reaction reagent in the prior art can not be transported conveniently for long distance by air as being in liquid state.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preservation methods for biochemical reagent compositions, and in particular relates to a gel-based preservation method for polymerase chain reaction reagents and reaction reagents. Background technique [0002] In the past 20 years, nucleic acid amplification technology represented by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been rapidly developed and applied. Due to the convenience and speed of PCR technology, which can amplify a large number of target nucleic acid fragments in a short period of time, this technology has been widely used in the fields of gene cloning and recombinant expression, biological species identification and classification, species origin and evolution, epidemic pathogen detection and forensic identification. Wide range of applications. Although PCR technology itself has obvious advantages, products based on this technology face some problems in the process of large-scale application...
