Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biological and medical testing technology, more specifically, to the field of DNA extraction technology for old bone samples, and in particular to a method for extracting trace amounts of DNA from old bone samples without decalcification. Background Art

[0002] Bones are a special type of biological specimen. They are a dense connective tissue that contains a large amount of calcium compounds, which greatly slows down the decomposition of cells or DNA inside the bones by microorganisms, making bone specimens decay and degrade more slowly than other tissues and organs in the human body. Therefore, in actual forensic cases, bones are the only biological specimens for DNA testing of highly decayed and skeletal corpses.

[0003] Most of the old skeletal samples are those that have been buried for a long time. They have been preserved for a long time and in a complex environment. As a result, the old skeletal samples have problems such as severe sample degradation, high content of soil impurities, and high content of metal impurities, making old skeletal samples a difficulty in the actual forensic case inspection.

[0004] For old bone samples, traditional methods often require increasing the amount of bone powder to increase the total amount of sample DNA, but this also introduces too many impurities. In order to eliminate the influence of calcium in bone powder and metal impurities in soil, it is necessary to use 0.5mol / L EDTA decalcification solution (pH 8.0) to decalcify for 12 hours before incubating the bone powder, then centrifuge and discard the decalcification solution before incubating the bone powder. If the EDTA decalcification solution is directly introduced into the bone incubation solution, the product will be unstable after the excessive metal impurities are complexed with the decalcification solution, and it is easy to precipitate fine particle impurities under the extraction environment, which will affect the efficiency of magnetic beads to adsorb DNA. If the metal ions or precipitated impurities cannot be effectively removed, it will affect the subsequent PCR amplification. Therefore, the traditional method uses a separate decalcification method, but it will cause the DNA in the bone cells on the surface of the bone chips to be lost during the decalcification process, affecting the detection effect of old bone samples and increasing the extraction test time.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the above situation, it is necessary to develop a method for extracting trace DNA from old bone samples without decalcification, which can effectively extract and purify trace DNA from old bone samples without the need for separate decalcification pre-treatment to avoid sample loss. The extracted DNA can be used for forensic identification and can provide a more effective basis for case detection and court trials. Summary of the invention

[0150]

[0151]

[0152] 2. Experimental steps

[0153] 1) The bone powder was prepared in Example 1.

[0154] 2) Take 3 g of bone powder in a screw-cap centrifuge tube, add 5 mL of decalcification solution, shake and mix, place on an automatic flip mixer, decalcify at room temperature for 12 h, then place the centrifuge tube in a centrifuge at 7000 rpm for 5 minutes, and discard all the liquid.

Aspirate the DNA solution and save it in another centrifuge tube.

[0159] The total extraction time was approximately 20 hours.

[0160] The DNA solution obtained in Comparative Example 3 was amplified by PCR using the FastDirect DNA 25A Amplification Kit (Baiteyuan Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), and electrophoresed in an ABI 3500XL instrument. The STR typing spectrum obtained is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the STR loci are complete and accurately typed, with 25 loci alleles intact, but the peak heights are basically below 1500, indicating that the purification method can obtain DNA with purity that meets the requirements, but its extraction time is long, the sample content is low, and the purification efficiency is low, so it is not suitable for extracting trace DNA from old bone samples.

[0161] Through the above experimental comparison, it is found that the method of the present invention has a better extraction effect. The method of the present invention is easy to operate, does not require separate decalcification pretreatment, avoids sample loss, has high sensitivity in DNA extraction, strong resistance to impurity interference, and high detection rate. It can effectively extract and purify trace DNA (100pg to 250pg) from old bone samples, fully demonstrating the applicability and effectiveness of the method of the present invention, and can provide a more effective basis for case detection and court trials.

[0162] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are mainly:

[0163] 1. The present invention provides a method for extracting trace DNA from old bone samples without decalcification, which replaces the traditional EDTA decalcification step and directly introduces a specific metal chelator into the bone incubation solution. Compared with EDTA and its sodium salt, the specific metal chelator has a stronger chelating ability for calcium and magnesium ions, and the specific metal chelator and its complex product are highly water-soluble, not easy to precipitate, and easy to remove, and will not affect the efficiency of magnetic bead adsorption of DNA and subsequent PCR amplification.

[0164] 2. The present invention refers to a method for extracting trace DNA from soil samples disclosed in the Chinese invention patent ZL202010324464.3 of the applicant. A phosphoramidite derivative is also added to the bone incubation solution, so that it preferentially acts on the fixed sites of the phosphate group on the surface of the soil, greatly reducing the adsorption of DNA by the soil, and being able to obtain the incubation product to the maximum extent. The soil impurities are then removed by centrifugation to ensure that there is no adverse effect on the subsequent adsorption of DNA by magnetic beads. The excess phosphoramidite derivative in the reaction system is adsorbed by a carboxylic acid-based cationic resin and then removed by centrifugation. Therefore, minimizing the impact of soil impurities in old bone samples on DNA extraction and recovery is beneficial to improving the efficiency of trace DNA recovery in old bone samples, thereby effectively improving the detection rate of old bone samples with high impurity content.

[0165] 3. In order to eliminate the influence of metal impurities on the extraction effect as much as possible, the present invention can also introduce specific metal chelators with different proportions into the washing solution I system to minimize the metal impurities being brought into the elution system by the magnetic beads, thereby improving the sample purity and reducing the influence of impurities on subsequent PCR amplification.

[0166] Therefore, the present invention provides a method for extracting trace DNA from old bone samples, which can achieve effective extraction of DNA from old bone samples, eliminate the need for a separate decalcification step, simplify the operation process, shorten the extraction time, has strong resistance to impurity inhibition, and can effectively improve the success rate of extracting trace DNA from old bone samples.

[0167] The present invention is a method for simplifying the extraction of old bone samples, avoiding sample loss caused by a single decalcification step, enhancing the anti-interference ability of soil impurities, thereby improving the detection rate of old bone samples, and has broad application prospects.

[0168] In summary, the method for extracting trace DNA from old bone samples without decalcification of the present invention can effectively extract and purify trace DNA from old bone samples, does not require separate decalcification pretreatment, and avoids sample loss. The extracted DNA can be used for forensic identification, and can provide a more effective basis for case detection and court trials. It is ingeniously designed, uniquely conceived, and easy to operate. It eliminates the need for a separate decalcification step, simplifies the operating process, shortens the extraction time, and is suitable for large-scale promotion and application.

[0169] In this specification, the present invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments thereof. However, it is apparent that various modifications and variations may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the description should be regarded as illustrative rather than restrictive.
