Polymerase Chain Reaction Cleaner with Antibacterial Effect and Faster Elimination of Nucleic Acid Aerosol Pollution

With advancement of nucleic acid detection technology, most universities, biological testing companies, and hospitals have Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) laboratories. PCR detection technology is the core technology for nucleic acid detection. When nucleic acid detection is performed in a PCR laboratory, nucleic acid aerosol samples are often dispersed to the environment in the form of aerosols. At this time, there will be some nucleic acid contamination in the PCR laboratory, resulting in false positive samples. The purpose of this paper is to propose a new type of nucleic acid pollution scavenger called PCR Cleaner. Firstly, the best ratio of PCR Cleaner was obtained by a control experiment, and then the antibacterial test for the PCR Cleaner was carried by comparing the nucleic acid pollution removal efficiency of different ratios of PCR Cleaner and common nucleic acid pollution scavenger on the surface and in the air. Experiment results showed that, the removal efficiency of PCR Cleaner on the surface of nucleic acid was much higher than that of alcohol and aqueous solution. Its effect was good enough when compared to the two commonly used nucleic acid pollution scavengers (DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus and PCR clean). The antibacterial and bacteriostatic PCR Cleaner can significantly inhibit the growth of high concentration of E. coli , and can also completely inhibit the low concentration of E. coli .
