DNA Chip Research, AIST Jointly Develop Amination Reagent.


Tokyo, Japan, Nov 21, 2005 - (JCNN JCNN Japan Corporate News Network ) - DNA Chip DNA chip

See DNA microarray.

Noun 1. DNA chip - a microchip that holds DNA probes that form half of the DNA double helix and can recognize DNA from samples being tested
gene chip
 Research has developed an animation reagent in collaboration with the Research Institute of Genome-Based Factory of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (産業技術総合研究所  (AIST AIST Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (Japan)
AIST National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (Japan)
AIST Association for Iron & Steel Technology
). The new reagent is designed to have amino modification of oligonucleotide.

Specifically, by inducing a hydrogen bond hydrogen bond
n.
A chemical bond in which a hydrogen atom of one molecule is attracted to an electronegative atom, especially a nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine atom, usually of another molecule.
 within a molecular, the new reagent obtains high-reactive aminated oligonucleotide in a few minutes with improved purification efficiency.

In addition, DNA Chip Research has concluded a licensing agreement with SIGMA-ALDRICH Japan. Under the agreement terms, the two companies will collaborate in synthesizing high-reactive aminated oligonucleotide using the newly-developed amination reagent.

Further, by leveraging their strength in gene designs and DNA microarray technologies, the two companies aim to develop and provide highly reliable gene analysis technology.
