The invention discloses a method for extracting
wolbachia used for embryonic injection
transfection, which comprises: dissecting an
insect having
wolbachia to obtain the
ovary of the
insect, and placing the
ovary in
sucrose phosphate glutamate (SPG)
buffer solution; and homogenizing the
ovary, washing the homogenate with the SPG
buffer solution, collecting the homogenate, placing the collected homogenate in a
centrifuge to
centrifuge the homogenate in amount of 100 to 1,000 grams for 1 to 10 minutes, collecting supernate, centrifuging the supernate in an amount of 5,000 to 15,000 grams for 5 to 20 minutes, removing supernate, washing the
sediment with the SPG
buffer solution to obtain suspension, centrifuging the suspension in an amount of 100 to 1,000 grams for 1 to 10 minutes, collecting the supernate which is pure
wolbachia, wherein the pure wolbachia can be used for embryonic injection in mosquitoes. In the method disclosed by the invention, the source (ovary tissues of insects having the wolbachia) of the wolbachia is rich and can be obtained easily; and the whole method is simple and convenient in operation, has very high
controllability, and can obtain lots of wolbachia forembryonic injection
transfection in a give time very easily, thereby saving lots time and energy, improving working efficiency and contributing to quick establishment of a mosquito strain transfectedwith wolbachia.
