  • Patent number: 11692216
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a simple and efficient device for predicting a risk of occurrence of a side effect of irinotecan by analyzing a single nucleotide polymorphism in a region encoding a specific gene. The prediction of the risk of the occurrence of a side effect of irinotecan is assisted by analyzing a single nucleotide polymorphism in a region encoding the APCDD1L gene, the R3HCC1 gene, the OR51I2 gene, the MKKS gene, the EDEM3 gene, or the ACOX1 gene which are present on genomic DNA in a biological sample collected from a test subject; or a single nucleotide polymorphism which is in linkage disequilibrium with or genetically linked to the single nucleotide polymorphism, and determining whether the single nucleotide polymorphism is homozygous for a variant type, heterozygous, or homozygous for a wild-type.

  • Patent number: 11111526
    Abstract: In the case of using a blocking nucleic acid to prevent non-specific hybridization of a target nucleic acid with a nucleic acid probe, further excellent efficiency of detecting the target nucleic acid is achieved. A buffer composition used in hybridization of a target nucleic acid with a nucleic acid probe, wherein the buffer composition for hybridization contains a blocking nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence complementary to a region comprising at least a non-detection target nucleotide in a non-target nucleic acid, in a concentration of one or more times higher than the concentration of a nucleic acid in a nucleic acid mixture consisting of the target nucleic acid and the non-target nucleic acid.

  • Patent number: 10450601
    Abstract: A buffer composition for hybridization of a target nucleic acid is provided. The nucleic acid can include a nucleotide to be detected with a nucleic acid probe. The probe can contain a nucleotide sequence complementary to the target nucleic acid. The buffer can include a blocking nucleic acid having a nucleotide sequence complementary to a non-target nucleic acid having a nucleotide not to be detected corresponding to the nucleotide to be detected. The buffer composition can suppress non-specific hybridization to the nucleic acid probe even when a non-target nucleic acid is present. The use of the buffer composition can achieve excellent detection efficiency of the target nucleic acid.
