Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for preparing high purity gentiooligosaccharides, high purity gentiooligosaccharides obtained therefrom, and uses thereof. The methods of the present invention involve: adding a low purity gentiooligosaccharide to a liquid medium; subjecting the liquid medium to inoculation with a microorganism, followed by incubation and fermentation to consume glucose that is contained in the low purity gentiooligosaccharide; and subjecting the resulting fermentation broth to filtration and purification. According to the method of the present invention, high purity gentiooligosaccharides having a purity of at least 90% that can be used as alternatives to foods such as cocoa, chocolate, coffee, beer, tea, bread or confectionery product, and beverage or the main ingredients thereof.

Abstract: A quality control method of a DNA microarray is provided which includes preparing a DNA spotting solution containing a first fluorescent dye having particular excitation and emission wavelengths, applying the DNA spotting solution to a substrate of a DNA chip to form DNA spots in which the first fluorescent dye is bound to the substrate, and detecting fluorescent signals from the DNA spots. In the DNA microarray quality control method, since a signal from a fluorescent dye covalently bound to the solid chip surface together with DNA probe is used for the quality control, staining and dye-removing processes, which were performed in conventional quality control methods, are unnecessary.
