  • Isolation of nucleic acid
    Patent number: 6090935
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for isolating nucleic acid from a sample, said method comprising boiling said sample and allowing it to cool, and condensing the nucleic acid onto a high-surface area solid support, and in particular the use of such a method in the preparation of nucleic acid samples for subsequent amplification. The method has particular utility in the isolation of nucleic acid from aged, fixed or otherwise distressed samples.

  • Method for the detection of Ras oncogenes, in particular the K-ras oncogene
    Patent number: 6090546
    Abstract: The invention relates to an oligonucleotide primer sequence for use in in vitro amplification, characterised in that said primer sequence is capable of creating a BstX I restriction site overlapping codon (12) and/or an Xcm I restriction site overlapping codon (13) or a Bce 83I restriction site overlapping codon (61) of the wild-type K-ras oncogene, methods of using said primer sequences for detecting activating mutations in codons (12 and/or 13 and/or 61) of the K-ras oncogene and kits for performing the methods.
