  • Publication number: 20110177961
    Abstract: The present disclosure diagnoses mycobacterium tuberculosis, not mycobacterium tuberculosis complex only. Specific target genes are selected from regions of difference of mycobacterium tuberculosis. After hybridization with labeling substances, sputum samples are processed through color developments separately for obtaining images to be analyzed automatically. Thus, the present disclosure rapidly diagnoses mycobacterium tuberculosis in the sputum samples with a simple operation and a low cost.

  • Publication number: 20100184623
    Abstract: A gene-array operation chip device includes a reaction chamber, and a plurality of inlet holes connected respectively to agitation channels for creating agitation currents within the reaction chamber. Each agitation channel has two ends respectively connected to one of the inlet holes and to the reaction chamber. The agitation channels are inclined with respect to radial directions about an axis of the reaction chamber. Preferably, a flow channel interconnecting two reaction chambers has a hydrophobic wall surface to limit a fluid from flowing naturally between the chambers. In an embodiment, the reaction chamber is a hybridization chamber provided with a membrane-array.
