[0121] (2) 1 mL of the collected sputum was mixed with 0.1 mL of sodium hydroxide solution (0.1 M), liquefied for 30 min, and 10 mL of Tris-HCl buffer (1 mM, pH = 7.5) was added and mixed evenly to obtain an interference solution; human genomic DNA was added in an amount of 4 mg / L and mixed with the interference solution to obtain a DNA sample to be tested.
[0122] (3) The enzyme solution and the primer system shown in Table 4 were used to perform PCR amplification on the DNA sample to be tested, and a PCR amplification product with a length of 1 kb was obtained. The PCR reaction system includes: 2.5 μL of the DNA sample to be tested, 0.5 μL of dNTPs (10 mmol / L), 2.5 μL of PCR amplification buffer, 2.5 μL of BSA (1 mg / L), 0.5 μL of each upstream and downstream primer (10 nmol / L), 1 μL of enzyme solution, and ddH2O was added to make up to 25 μL. The PCR reaction program includes: 95°C pre-denaturation for 3 min; 95°C denaturation for 15 s; 58°C annealing for 15 s; 72°C extension time for 2 min; 30 cycles; 72°C extension for 5 min.
[0123] (4) 0.5 μL of PCR amplification product and DNA Ladder were respectively taken for gel electrophoresis, and the grayscale of the gel electrophoresis bands was analyzed using Image J and normalized with reference to the total intensity of the DNA Ladder bands to obtain the normalized intensity of each band. The results are shown in Table 8.
