Abstract:
An improved protocol for non-radioactive labelling and detection of rice and tomato DNA is described. The procedure includes
the use of polymerase chain reaction for the incorporation of digoxigenin-dUTP in the DNA molecule and the use of a chemiluminescent
compound (AMPPD) for the signal detection.
