Blinded evaluation of DNA extraction and genotyping of stained Cryptosporidium on glass slides

AIMS: A blinded trial was performed on Cryptosporidium genotyping using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the Cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein (COWP) gene between DNA extracted from oocyst suspensions as compared with DNA from fixed and stained faecal smears on glass microscope slides. METHODS AND RESULTS: Sixty-five faecal smears on slides were stained by one of three different methods comprising 50 positives and 15 negatives as determined by the observation of Cryptosporidium oocysts by microscopy. The expected result in terms of detection and the COWP genotype detected was achieved using DNA extracted from 94% of the slides tested. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that DNA, which can be amplified by PCR, is present in stained smears on glass microscope slides. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The method may be useful for molecular epidemiological studies on a range of gastrointestinal pathogens where samples are collected from locations remote from the testing laboratory.     

Minisequencing on oligonucleotide microarrays: comparison of immobilisation chemistries

In the microarray format of the minisequencing method multiple oligonucleotide primers immobilised on a glass surface are extended with fluorescent ddNTPs using a DNA polymerase. The method is a promising tool for large-scale single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection. We have compared eight chemical methods for covalent immobilisation of the oligonucleotide primers on glass surfaces. We included both commercially available, activated slides and slides that were modified by ourselves. In the comparison the differently derivatised glass slides were evaluated with respect to background fluorescence, efficiency of attaching oligonucleotides and performance of the primer arrays in minisequencing reactions. We found that there are significant differences in background fluorescence levels among the different coatings, and that the attachment efficiency, which was measured indirectly using extension by terminal transferase, varied largely depending on which immobilisation strategy was used. We also found that the attachment chemistry affects the genotyping accuracy, when minisequencing on microarrays is used as the genotyping method. The best genotyping results were observed using mercaptosilane-coated slides attaching disulfide-modified oligonucleotides.

Capture of genomic DNA on glass microscope slides

It is well known that DNA strands bind to silica surfaces in the presence of high concentrations of chaotropic salts. We developed simple methods to evaluate binding and recovery of DNA on flat glass microscope slides and compared their properties with commercially available silica "spin columns". Surprisingly, genomic DNA was recovered efficiently from untreated glass slides. Binding and elution times from glass slides were optimized in experiments with DNA samples of various sizes and defined buffers. Average DNA recovery from 500 ng of input genomic DNA varied from 25 to 53% for the glass slide protocol. Yields were comparable to those of spin columns. Human serum albumin and plasma components decreased DNA binding to glass several-fold in a concentration-dependent manner. These results support the concept of using flat glass slides as DNA purification surfaces in microfluidic devices for PCR sample preparation.     

A high-throughput plant DNA extraction method for marker analysis

The use of molecular markers to improve crops depends on the availability of rapid and efficient DNA extraction methods. Here we describe a simple and inexpensive method to isolate plant DNA suitable for RFLP, AFLP, and simple sequence repeat (SSR) analysis. This procedure uses stainless steel ball bearings to grind 16 samples simultaneously using a high-speed flask shaker. The method used in routine laboratory exercises yields 120–144 DNA extractions in a day by a single person at a cost of $0.60 (AUD) per sample, doubling the throughput of conventional methods.     

Solid phase DNA amplification: characterisation of primer attachment and amplification mechanisms

Different chemical methods used to attach oligonucleotides by their 5′-end on a glass surface were tested in the framework of solid phase PCR where surface-bound instead of freely-diffusing primers are used to amplify DNA. Each method was first evaluated for its capacity to provide a high surface coverage of oligonucleotides essentially attached via a 5′-specific linkage that satisfyingly withstands PCR conditions and leaves the 3′-ends available for DNA polymerase activity. The best results were obtained with 5′-thiol-modified oligonucleotides attached to amino-silanised glass slides using a heterobifunctional cross-linker reagent. It was then demonstrated that the primers bound to the glass surface using the optimal chemistry can be involved in attaching and amplifying DNA molecules present in the reaction mix in the absence of freely-diffusing primers. Two distinct amplification processes called interfacial and surface amplification have been observed and characterised. The newly synthesised DNA can be detected and quantified by radioactive and fluorescent hybridisation assays. These new surface amplification processes are seen as an interesting approach for attachment of DNA molecules by their 5′-end on a solid support and can be used as an alternative route for producing DNA chips for genomic studies.     

Sensitivity of HPV tests on stained vs. unstained cervical smears

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of Pspanicolaou staining of cervical smears on the sensitivity of molecular biologic HPV tests. STUDY DESIGN: Two sensitive HPV tests were used, HPV DNA sequence analysis after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and the Hybrid Capture II method (HC II) (Digene Diagnostics Inc., Silver Spring, Maryland, USA). Papanicolaou-stained and unstained smears taken simultaneously were examined from 265 women readmitted for examination due to an atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance diagnosis. RESULTS: After an HPV test with the PCR method on unstained slides, 66% of the women were HPV positive, whereas the same women were HPVpositive in 54% when Papanicolaou-stained slides were analyzed. However, this difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.1). With the HC II method, 55% of unstained smears were HPV positive whereas 29% were HPV positive, when Papanicolaou-stained slides were examined. This difference was significant (p < 0.001). The same strong differences in sensitivity were observed when both the PCR and HC II methods were studied on the same Papanicolaou stained glass slides, whereas on unstained slides no significant difference was found. CONCLUSION: The results demonstrate that Papanicolaou staining of a cervical smear significantly decreases the sensitivity of an HPV test performed with the HC II method, whereas the PCR method is less affected. With the Papanicolaou method, the hematoxylin bath is followed by HCl treatment, and strong acid treatment destroys DNA.     

Creating highly dense and uniform protein and DNA microarrays through photolithography and plasma modification of glass substrates

We demonstrate a method to create high density protein microarrays with excellent spot uniformity using photolithography and plasma processing on low cost commercially available microscope glass slides. Protein deposition and fluorescence signal evaluation on these substrates are performed by standard arrayers and scanners. To this end, spots of commercial photoresists (AZ5214, SU8 and Ormocomp(?)) were defined through lithography on glass substrates followed by short SF(6) plasma treatment and selective protein adsorption on these spots with respect to glass (spot to background fluorescence signal ratios 30:1 to 40:1) was demonstrated using model protein binding assays. Among the photoresists tested, Ormocomp was selected since it provided the highest protein binding capacity. No ageing of Ormocomp/glass substrates in terms of protein binding capacity was observed for at least two months. Besides to protein microarrays, DNA microarrays were also developed by spotting streptavidin-biotinylated oligonucleotide conjugates corresponding to wild- and mutant-type sequences of four deleterious BRCA1 gene mutations. For all of the examined mutations, higher specific hybridization signals (1.5-4 times) and improved discrimination ratios between wild- and mutant-type sequences as well as higher spot uniformity and repeatability were demonstrated on Ormocomp/glass substrates with intra- and inter-spot CVs of 8.0% and 4.5%, respectively, compared to commercial polystyrene (intra- and inter-spot CVs 36% and 18%) and epoxy-coated glass (intra- and inter-spot CVs 26% and 20%) slides. Thus, the proposed substrates can be readily applied to protein and DNA microarrays fabrication and, moreover, the described method for selective protein adsorption can be advantageously implemented in various analytical microdevices for multi-analyte detection.
