油气田土壤DNA提取方法及油气指示菌基因定量结果的比较

采用4种提取方法对油田上方6个土壤样品微生物总基因组DNA进行提取,并比较了其纯度和浓度。利用定量PCR技术定量分析各土壤中甲烷单加氧酶基因（pmoA）和丁烷单加氧酶基因（brnoX）。与DNA试剂盒法相比,玻璃珠击打法、液氮研磨法、反复冻融法得到DNA纯度较低,需纯化才能进行后续的PCR扩增。液氮研磨法得到的DNA完整性、纯度和得率较其他提取方法均较好,尤其对于生物量较少的深层油田土壤DNA提取较为实用,成本较低。甲烷单加氧酶基因（pmoA）和丁烷单加氧酶基因（bmoX）的定量PCR结果表明,液氮研磨法提取DNA样品的定量结果在气区和油区均出现一定的高值。液氮研磨法较其他方法更适合于油田土壤DNA的提取。下一步研究可以把丁烷氧化茵作为油气指示茵研究中的重点检测对象。

Evaluation and optimization of DNA extraction and purification procedures for soil and sediment samples.

We compared and statistically evaluated the effectiveness of nine DNA extraction procedures by using frozen and dried samples of two silt loam soils and a silt loam wetland sediment with different organic matter contents. The effects of different chemical extractants (sodium dodecyl sulfate [SDS], chloroform, phenol, Chelex 100, and guanadinium isothiocyanate), different physical disruption methods (bead mill homogenization and freeze-thaw lysis), and lysozyme digestion were evaluated based on the yield and molecular size of the recovered DNA. Pairwise comparisons of the nine extraction procedures revealed that bead mill homogenization with SDS combined with either chloroform or phenol optimized both the amount of DNA extracted and the molecular size of the DNA (maximum size, 16 to 20 kb). Neither lysozyme digestion before SDS treatment nor guanidine isothiocyanate treatment nor addition of Chelex 100 resin improved the DNA yields. Bead mill homogenization in a lysis mixture containing chloroform, SDS, NaCl, and phosphate-Tris buffer (pH 8) was found to be the best physical lysis technique when DNA yield and cell lysis efficiency were used as criteria. The bead mill homogenization conditions were also optimized for speed and duration with two different homogenizers. Recovery of high-molecular-weight DNA was greatest when we used lower speeds and shorter times (30 to 120 s). We evaluated four different DNA purification methods (silica-based DNA binding, agarose gel electrophoresis, ammonium acetate precipitation, and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration) for DNA recovery and removal of PCR inhibitors from crude extracts. Sephadex G-200 spin column purification was found to be the best method for removing PCR-inhibiting substances while minimizing DNA loss during purification. Our results indicate that for these types of samples, optimum DNA recovery requires brief, low-speed bead mill homogenization in the presence of a phosphate-buffered SDS-chloroform mixture, followed by Sephadex G-200 column purification.

A comparison of DNA extraction and purification methods to detect Escherichia coli O157:H7 in cattle manure

The extraction of DNA from manure and the subsequent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of virulence genes to detect pathogens require an effective method of purification. Four different methods were assessed for their effectiveness in extracting and purifying Escherichia coli O157:H7 DNA from cattle manure: phenol/chloroform purification, phenol/chloroform/Sepharose B4 spin columns, phenol/chloroform/polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP) spun columns, and Mo Bio UltraClean kit. A PCR assay targeting the shiga-like toxin I gene (sltI) was carried out to determine the effectiveness of the four methods in removing PCR inhibitors from the manure samples. All methods were used to extract a manure slurry and the cleanliness of the samples was tested by the PCR with varying concentrations of spiked E. coli O157:H7 target DNA. The PVPP spun columns and the UltraClean kit had the best detection limit, detecting 20 pg of E. coli DNA (about 2x10(3) cells) per 100 mg of manure. The UltraClean kit and the PVPP spun columns also had the best and similar detection limits of 3x10(4) CFU/100 mg manure when E. coli O157:H7 cells were spiked into the manure sample and purified by all four methods. The enrichment of cells after inoculation into manure was performed using tryptic soy broth at 37 degrees C for 5 h. Both the PVPP spun columns and the UltraClean kit methods were used to purify the enriched samples and were able to detect initial inocula of 6 CFU/100 mg manure, indicating that the two methods were highly efficient in purifying DNA from manure samples.     

Purification of human genomic DNA from whole blood using sodium perchlorate in place of phenol

We have developed a new, rapid method for the extraction of human genomic DNA from whole blood samples. Traditionally, genomic DNA has been extracted from blood by overnight proteinase K digestion of lysed peripheral lymphocytes followed by phenol/chloroform extraction. In addition to being time consuming, the use of phenol involves inherent risks due to the toxic nature of the reagent. Our method for the extraction of DNA from whole blood uses sodium perchlorate and chloroform instead of phenol with a significant time savings realized as well as fewer hazards to the technician. Furthermore, DNA prepared by this new method is an excellent substrate for restriction endonuclease digestion and Southern hybridization analysis.     

A simple method for DNA extraction from marine bacteria that produce extracellular materials

We present a simple method for extracting DNA from the marine bacteria Hahella chejuensis, a Streptomyces sp., and a Cytophaga sp. Previously, DNA purification from these strains was hindered by the presence of extracellular materials. In our extraction method, the marine bacteria are lysed by freezing and grinding in liquid nitrogen, and treated with SDS. The extracted DNA is purified using a phenol/chloroform mixture, and precipitated in isopropanol. The extracted DNA is of high quality and suitable for molecular analyses, such as PCR, restriction enzyme digestion, genomic DNA blot hybridization, and genomic DNA library construction. We used this method to extract genomic DNA from several other marine bacteria. Our method is a reproducible, simple, and rapid technique for routine DNA extractions from marine bacteria. Furthermore, the low cost of this method makes it attractive for large-scale studies.     

More than skin and bones: Comparing extraction methods and alternative sources of DNA from avian museum specimens

Next‐generation sequencing has greatly expanded the utility and value of museum collections by revealing specimens as genomic resources. As the field of museum genomics grows, so does the need for extraction methods that maximize DNA yields. For avian museum specimens, the established method of extracting DNA from toe pads works well for most specimens. However, for some specimens, especially those of birds that are very small or very large, toe pads can be a poor source of DNA. In this study, we apply two DNA extraction methods (phenol–chloroform and silica column) to three different sources of DNA (toe pad, skin punch and bone) from 10 historical avian museum specimens. We show that a modified phenol–chloroform protocol yielded significantly more DNA than a silica column protocol (e.g., Qiagen DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit) across all tissue types. However, extractions using the silica column protocol contained longer fragments on average than those using the phenol–chloroform protocol, probably as a result of loss of small fragments through the silica column. While toe pads yielded more DNA than skin punches and bone fragments, skin punches proved to be a reliable alternative source of DNA and might be especially appealing when toe pad extractions are impractical. Overall, we found that historical bird museum specimens contain substantial amounts of DNA for genomic studies under most extraction scenarios, but that a phenol–chloroform protocol consistently provides the high quantities of DNA required for most current genomic protocols.     

Fecal collection, ambient preservation, and DNA extraction for PCR amplification of bacterial and human markers from human feces

Feces contain intestinal bacteria and exfoliated epithelial cells that may provide useful information concerning gastrointestinal tract health. Intestinal bacteria that synthesize or metabolize potential carcinogens and produce anti-tumorigenic products may have relevance to colorectal cancer, the second most common cause of cancer deaths in the USA. To facilitate epidemiological studies relating bacterial and epithelial cell DNA and RNA markers, preservative/extraction methods suitable for self-collection and shipping of fecal samples at room temperature were tested. Purification and PCR amplification of fecal DNA were compared after preservation of stool samples in RNAlater (R) or Paxgene (P), or after drying over silica gel (S) or on Whatman FTA cards (W). Comparisons were made to samples frozen in liquid nitrogen (N2). DNA purification methods included Whatman (accompanying FTA cards), Mo-Bio Fecal (MB), Qiagen Stool (QS), and others. Extraction methods were compared for amount of DNA extracted, DNA amplifiable in a real-time SYBR-Green quantitative PCR format, and the presence of PCR inhibitors. DNA can be extracted after room temperature storage for five days from W, R, S and P, and from N2 frozen samples. High amounts of total DNA and PCR-amplifiable Bacteroides spp. DNA (34%+/-9% of total DNA) with relatively little PCR inhibition were especially obtained with QS extraction applied to R preserved samples (method QS-R). DNA for human reduced folate carrier (SLC19A1) genomic sequence was also detected in 90% of the QS-R extracts. Thus, fecal DNA is well preserved by methods suitable for self-collection that may be useful in future molecular epidemiological studies of intestinal bacteria and human cancer markers.     

三种提取柱状黄杆菌基因组DNA方法的比较

Comparison of strategies for the isolation of PCR-compatible, genomic DNA from a municipal biogas plants

The goal of the project was the extraction of PCR-compatible genomic DNA representative of the entire microbial community from municipal biogas plant samples (mash, bioreactor content, process water, liquid fertilizer). For the initial isolation of representative DNA from the respective lysates, methods were used that employed adsorption, extraction, or precipitation to specifically enrich the DNA. Since no dedicated method for biogas plant samples was available, preference was given to kits/methods suited to samples that resembled either the bioreactor feed, e.g. foodstuffs, or those intended for environmental samples including wastewater. None of the methods succeeded in preparing DNA that was directly PCR-compatible. Instead the DNA was found to still contain considerable amounts of difficult-to-remove enzyme inhibitors (presumably humic acids) that hindered the PCR reaction. Based on the isolation method that gave the highest yield/purity for all sample types, subsequent purification was attempted by agarose gel electrophoresis followed by electroelution, spermine precipitation, or dialysis through nitrocellulose membrane. A combination of phenol/chloroform extraction followed by purification via dialysis constituted the most efficient sample treatment. When such DNA preparations were diluted 1:100 they did no longer inhibit PCR reactions, while they still contained sufficient genomic DNA to allow specific amplification of specific target sequences.     

Simple and efficient genomic DNA extraction protocol for molecular characterisation of Phytophthora colocasiae causing taro leaf blight

Genomic DNA extraction protocol with relatively high quantity and purity is prerequisite for the successful molecular identification and characterisation of plant pathogens. Conventional DNA extraction methods are often time-consuming and yield only very poor quantity of genomic DNA for samples with higher mycelial age. In our laboratory, we have aimed at establishing an efficient DNA isolation procedure, exclusively for the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora colocasiae causing serious leaf blight disease in taro. For this a phenol free protocol was adopted, which involves SDS/Proteinase K-based inactivation of protein contaminants, extraction of nucleic acids using chloroform: isoamyl alcohol and later precipitation of genomic DNA using isopropanol and sodium acetate. The purity of the isolated DNA was analysed by A_260/280 and A_260/230 spectrophotometric readings and confirmed by restriction digestion with restriction enzyme Eco RI. In this study, a comparative assessment was done with CTAB method and the commercial genomic DNA purification kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Fermentas, EU). The extracted DNA was found to be suitable for further downstream applications like ITS amplification of the rDNA ITS region and PCR amplification with species-specific primers.
