HelixAmp™ Direct WGA Kit는 극 소량의 조직 시료로부터 핵산의 분리 및 정제 과정없이 직접 ug/ul농도 수준으로 전체 genomic DNA를 증폭할 수 있는 제품으로, 동,식물의 조직 시료, 혈액, 혈청, 타액 등 임상관련 시료, 그리고 모근이나 혈흔과 같은 법의학적 시료 등 다양한 시료에 적용 가능합니다. 본 제품은 1 ul 혈액 (조직 시료의 경우, 1 ~ 3 mm 크기) 시료로부터 표준 반응을 통해 대략 10 µg 정도의DNA 산물을 얻을 수 있으므로, 특히 극소량의 희귀 시료에 대한 유전자원 확보에 유용하게 이용될 수 있습니다. Multiple displacement 기능과 3’→5’ exonuclease활성을 가지고 있는 Phi29 DNA polymerase는 매우 정확하게 70 ~ 100 kb길이로 DNA를 증폭할 수 있고, 증폭된 genomic DNA는 유전자형 분석(Genotyping analysis), 희귀유전자원의 확보 및 보존, 그리고 genomic DNA library 제작 등 다양한 DNA 분석 실험에 사용될 수 있습니다.
