Abstract: A method of designing primer and probe sets for identification of target sequences by amplification and hybridization is provided. Also, primer and probe sets designed by the method, a kit comprising the sets, a computer readable medium recorded thereon a program to execute the method, and a method of identifying target sequences using the sets are provided. Accordingly, primer and probe sets capable of identifying rapidly and accurately a number of target sequences can be readily designed.

Abstract: A method of designing a probe set for identifying a target sequence from a plurality of target sequence groups by a hybridization reaction is provided. The method includes: (a) selecting a first target sequence group including a plurality of target sequences; (b) selecting oligonucleotides specifically binding to the target sequences from the first target sequence group as a probe; (c) selecting one or more target sequences having no specifically binding probe from the first target sequence group as a second target sequence group; (d) selecting oligonucleotides specifically binding to the target sequences from the second target sequence group as a probe, wherein the operations (c) and (d) are repeated until a target sequence having no specifically binding probe is absent in the second target sequence group.

Abstract: A method of designing a probe set for identification of target sequences is provided. Also, a probe set designed by the method, a microarray including the probe set, a computer readable medium recorded thereon a program to execute the method, and a method of identifying target sequences using the probe set are provided. Accordingly, a probe set which can rapidly identify a number of target sequences and accurately identify target sequences even when two or more target sequences coexist in a sample can be readily designed.

Abstract: Provided are a microarray having microarray identification information stored in the form of a spot, and a method of producing the microarray. The stored microarray identification information can be read in a convenient and efficient manner.

Abstract: There are provided medical data providing system and method which separate ID (identification) data and non-ID data of a patient to provide only medical data of the patient. The system is comprised an ID information storage unit, an non-ID information storage unit, a medical care code generating unit, a care database and medical care code list database. To epidemiological research, the system is connected to the hospital or research center. When the medical data of a patient are intended to use for medical researches, only the non-ID data are provided to the hospital side in a state where the ID data of the patient exist only in the patient terminal physically separated from a computer system of a hospital, so that it is possible to prevent the personal information of the patient from being leaked.

Abstract: Provided are a computer-readable storage medium, a method for designing a genotyping-microarray using the same, and a computer system for designing a genotyping-microarray containing the same. The computer-readable storage medium has stored thereon: a first directory comprising an information on DNA, RNA, protein, and/or genome of a target gene; a second directory comprising an information on a specific region in the target gene; and a third directory containing an information on a probe for identifying the specific region; wherein the first, second, and third directories are organized in a hierarchical structure in which the second directory is at a level lower than that of the first directory and the third directory is at a level lower than that of the second directory.
