Horizontal methods for molecular biomarker analysis — Methods of analysis for the detection of genetically modified organisms and derived products — Part 9: Construct-specific real-time PCR based screening method for the detection of the P35S-nptII DNA-sequence

Апстракт

This document specifies a procedure for the detection of the DNA transition sequence between the 35S promoter region from cauliflower mosaic virus (P35S) and the neomycin-phosphotransferase gene (nptII) from the Tn5 transposon of Escherichia coli. The P35S-nptII segment is part of a construct which confers resistance to neomycin/kanamycin antibiotics frequently found in genetically modified (GM) plants.
The detection method is based on real-time PCR and can be used for qualitative screening purposes. For identification and quantification of a specific GM plant (event) a follow-up analysis has to be carried out.
This method is applicable for the analysis of DNA extracted from foodstuffs. It can also be suitable for the analysis of DNA extracted from other products such as feedstuffs and seeds. The application of this method requires the extraction of an adequate amount of amplifiable DNA from the relevant matrix.
