[0044] 3. Experimental Verification Results (I) qPCR experimental results 1. Abundance of target fragments in experimental groups (Groups 2, 3, 4, and 5) relative to the control group (Group 1, i.e., Dynabeads™ KilobaseBINDER™ Kit conditions) The relative content of the target DNA fragment. The higher the relative content of the target fragment, the higher the target fragment enrichment efficiency.
[0045] The relative content of the target DNA fragment is as follows Figure 1 As shown, it can be seen that the relative contents of target DNA fragments in Groups 2, 3, and 5 are significantly higher than those in Group 1. The experimental results show that the efficiency of enriching target DNA fragments using the kit prepared by the present invention is significantly higher than that using the Dynabeads™ KilobaseBINDER™ Kit.
[0046] However, group 4, i.e., the 2.5 μL T1 magnetic bead group, was unable to enrich the target DNA fragments detectable by qPCR. Compared with group 4, group 5 only increased the amount of T1 magnetic beads, and the target fragment enrichment efficiency was significantly improved.
[0047] Comparing Group 2 and Group 3, only the amount of M270 magnetic beads was increased, and the relative content of the target fragments was almost the same. The experimental results showed that only increasing the amount of M270 magnetic beads had no significant effect on the enrichment efficiency of the target fragments.
[0048] Experimental results showed that the relative content of target fragments in Groups 2, 3, and 5 was significantly increased compared to the prior art Group 1, with Group 3 showing the most superior effect. Furthermore, the reagents used in Groups 2, 3, and 5 were low-priced, significantly reducing costs compared to Group 1.
