Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for analyzing at least one nucleic acid sequence, a method for amplifying nucleic acid sequences, a method for identifying nucleic acid sequences, an oligonucleotide primer and an analysis kit according to the features in the preambles of claims 1, 24, 28, 30 and 31 and the use of the device or the analysis kit according to claims 32 to 35.
- Periodontitis an inflammatory disease of all parts of the periodontium caused by bacterial deposits with progressive loss of supporting tissue.
- Periodontitis is a common problem that affects a large percentage of the population.
- the disease can usually be treated well using antibiotics.
- antibiotics Recently, however, the frequent and sometimes untargeted use of antibiotics to treat various diseases has led to an increase in the development of resistance in many bacteria.
- a delayed bacteriological finding first requires broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy, which means more side effects for the patient and is more expensive.
- further therapeutic measures may be necessary, which consequently results in reduced effectiveness, a protracted course of the disease and an inefficient one
- Microbiological examinations enable the detection of physiological features with indicator media that e.g. B. indicate a change in pH, an exact determination of the type or type of bacteria.
- indicator media e.g. B. indicate a change in pH, an exact determination of the type or type of bacteria.
- the disadvantage that can be seen in microbiological analysis systems is that only live germs are to be detected, which requires careful sampling and a corresponding sample transport, and furthermore that the analysis takes several days to weeks.
- Serological tests can detect protein components from bacteria that react with antibodies.
- the use of monoclonal antibodies enables the detection of individual types and types of bacteria. Antibody-coupled enzyme reactions enable detection.
- Such an identification system consists in that, as shown for example in US Pat. No. 4,741,999 A, the use of monoclonal antibodies serves for the detection and determination of the concentration of certain microorganisms relating to the etiology of human periodontal diseases.
- a monoclonal antibody is specifically described for an antigen from Actinobacillus actinomycetemco-mitans. Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans mostly occurs in juvenile periodontitis.
- the serological systems have the disadvantage that only a few epitopes of an antigen can be detected with monoclonal antibodies.
- the number of available antibodies is therefore limited to certain types of bacteria.
- WO 00/52203 A describes a method for identifying bacteria which describes the amplification of part of the 23S rDNA using the primer 5 'GCGATTTCYGAAYGGGGRAACCC-3' and the primer 5'-TTCGCCTTTCCCTCACGGTACT-3 '.
- the amplificate is hybridized with various oligonucleotides on a nylon membrane.
- This method allows the identification of at least 8 types of bacteria in one test, the bacteria being selected from a group comprising bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp., Proteus spp., Pneumococci and coagulase include negative staphylococci.
- this system has the disadvantage that the 23S rDNA is variable and therefore suitable primary sequences for the bacterial genera and species to be analyzed have to be found in a few consensus areas to identify the bacterial genera and species. This in turn limits the number of types of bacteria that can be analyzed.
- the species present is identified by sequence comparison.
- a restriction analysis of the amplification product in the sense of an RFLP restriction fragment length polymorphism
- RFLP restriction fragment length polymorphism
- the main disadvantage of this system is that direct sequencing takes a long time and is expensive, and that RFLP does identify sequence variations but not many types of bacteria can be distinguished.
- Another disadvantage is that the oligonucleotide primers only find complementary sequences in the genera Helicobacter and Wolinella, and therefore can only detect and analyze these two genera.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a possibility for reproducible, quick and simple analysis of nucleic acid sequences. It is also a subtask of the
- the object of the invention is achieved by the device according to the features in the characterizing part of claim 1.
- the advantage of this device is that for the analysis of various analytes there are control systems on the device which go through the same process steps as the specific binding partners for the analyte and thus the user has the possibility of the quality of the analysis result via these without additional expenditure of time Assess or improve control systems. This is particularly advantageous if the individual process steps for the analysis of several people are possibly carried out at different locations and these do not communicate with each other. Unclear results can be traced back to possible sources of error.
- Another advantage is that the process costs using the device are hardly or not increased compared to processes without controls.
- the species-specific, amplified and hybridized analytes can be archived together with the quality controls, so that the process sequence can be checked at any time and the evaluation with consistent quality can be repeated.
- the development according to claim 4 is advantageous, which provides a control option for the alignment of the device both during the evaluation and after the evaluation.
- the evaluation device can already recognize the wrong orientation of the wearer.
- the evaluation can be terminated immediately and thus the costs for this and / or subsequent process steps can be saved.
- An embodiment according to claim 6 proves to be advantageous, according to which a complex error search can be carried out by specifically detecting an error in the amplification of the analyte
- the analysis result can be limited to the amplification step and the entire analysis does not have to be searched for the source of the error.
- the embodiment according to claim 7 also proves to be advantageous because mix-ups of samples to be analyzed, which took place before the start of the analysis, can be detected quickly. Furthermore, it proves advantageous that the source from which the at least one analyte originates can be determined, and thus the sample can still be assigned even after the analysis.
- the further development according to claim 8 proves to be advantageous, whereby by connecting an at least one further specific binding partner to the analyte to be analyzed as well as to a further binding partner, the analyte to be identified can be detected if an additional further specific binding partner is present for the further analyte.
- the signal of the analyte to be analyzed results from the difference between the detectable signals.
- a further development according to claim 9 is also advantageous, wherein the binding of the same specific binding partner to two different analytes, which have a very similar structure, can be demonstrated.
- a further binding partner that is specific only for the one analyte the presence of another but undesired analyte that also binds to the same binding partner can be identified.
- detection of contamination of the sample with, for example, infectious material is made possible.
- the analyzing or medical staff can be informed and warned at an early stage, thus minimizing the risk of infection and the possible consequential costs.
- An embodiment according to claim 10 is also advantageous, according to which at least a semi-quantitative determination of the analyte in the original sample is made possible because the quantity and quality of the isolation can be determined by adding a precisely defined amount of a substance with behavior similar to that of the analyte.
- the application of the specific binding partner to the carrier can be carried out immediately after this step but before the start of the analysis, after which the quality of the analysis can be ensured at a high level by the use of only perfect carriers and thus unnecessary costs by the use be avoided by faulty devices.
- An embodiment according to claim 13 proves to be advantageous, according to which a uniform intensity of the signals can be guaranteed when evaluating the analysis and thus results do not falsify the result due to different intensities of the signals.
- the surface of the device can check for unspecific deposits of analytes and thus a signal which arises from an unspecific binding of an analyte and would lead to a wrong result regarding the identification of the analyte.
- the device can thus be used universally regardless of an expected concentration of the analyte. It is also advantageous that the different concentrations of the binding partners quantify the analytes, such as. B. gene expressions.
- a configuration according to claim 18 is also advantageous, according to which the analysis can be carried out with greater certainty by arranging identical binding partners on the carrier in several analysis and / or control areas. Doubtful results in a certain analysis and / or control area can be confirmed or refuted by the result in at least one other analysis and / or control area.
- a further advantage is that the multiple arrangement of the same positive controls, both in different and in the same concentrations, enables normalization to be carried out within or between different measurements. So z. For example, by calculating a correction factor, the measurements in the analysis areas of a device can be compared with one another on one or more other devices. Of course, the measurements in the analysis areas can also be made on the same
- Device can be normalized by calculating a correction factor.
- an embodiment according to claim 19 proves advantageous, according to which, for. B. defective spots on the carrier not recognized during the manufacture of the device and / or uneven evaluation conditions over at least one further analysis and / or control area on the device due to the non-adjacent arrangement of the same binding partner in at least one further analysis and / or control area of the wearer can be recognized or compensated.
- nucleic acid sequences of many different types and types of bacteria can be analyzed simultaneously in any combination and thus a corresponding time saving or increased throughput can be realized in the laboratory.
- a further development of the device according to claim 22 is advantageous, with which only an oligonucleotide primer or primer a quality control for various process steps, in particular the amplification, is available. Furthermore, by using at least one of these oligonucleotide sequences, the necessary steps for optimizing the successful amplification can be minimized.
- different target nucleic acid sequences can be analyzed in an advantageous manner using only one oligonucleotide primer or primer pair, because by appropriately selecting the oligonucleotide sequences on the support, amplified target nucleic acid sequences simultaneously have complementary regions and can therefore hybridize.
- the object of the invention is also independently achieved by a method according to the features in the characterizing part of claims 24 and 28.
- the advantage of this is that several target nucleic acid sequences with only one primer sequence, in particular bacterial genera or species associated with periodontitis, can be amplified or identified simultaneously.
- the process costs for the laboratory can be reduced and the feasibility of the method can be simplified, since the risk of confusion regarding different oligonucleotide primers for different target nucleic acid sequences is minimized.
- the process can also be carried out by less experienced people.
- the storage can be simplified and the costs for a laboratory caused thereby can be reduced by reducing the number of different reagents. Due to the greater consumption of a primer, the acquisition costs for chemicals can also be reduced and the larger sales of this primer can reduce the storage time and thus the risk of the same being unusable.
- the further development according to claim 26 is also advantageous, because by using the gene sequences for the 16S rRNA with only one Prime ⁇ aar sequences different Bacterial species can be amplified.
- the gene sequence for the 16S rRNA has on the one hand highly conserved consensus regions to which the oligonucleotide primers bind and on the other hand gene or species-specific regions in between.
- the amplification of partial sequences of the genes which encode the 16S rRNA makes the use of many different oligonucleotide primer sequences and the optimization of the amplification conditions for the respective oligonucleotide primer sequence superfluous.
- the hybridization products ie. H. the amplificate bound to the complementary oligonucleotide can generate a signal. This increases the degree of automation and thus a
- the object of the invention is also achieved independently by an oligonucleotide primer according to the features in the characterizing part of claim 30.
- the advantage of this is that amplification products, created by the amplification with this primer or a prime pair formed from them, hybridize to a carrier with a complementary oligonucleotide sequence for at least one positive control and / or target nucleic acid sequence and the resulting signal enables the method and / or quality to be checked identification of the types of bacteria is made possible.
- the object of the invention is also achieved independently by an analysis kit according to the features in the characterizing part of claim 31.
- the advantage of this is that the analysis kit contains both the device and the oligonucleotide primers for the simultaneous amplification of different types of bacteria.
- the analysis result also contains results of the checks carried out during the analysis, so that any errors can be recognized before or with the analysis of the analytes and thus a lengthy research into the causes and, if necessary, a necessary optimization effort can be reduced.
- the object of the invention is also independent through the use of the device solved according to the features in the characterizing part of claims 32 and 33.
- the advantage of this is that analytes of bacterial species associated with periodontitis can be identified and thus an exact analysis of the associated germs can be achieved.
- the object of the invention is also achieved independently by using the analysis kit according to the features in the characterizing part of claims 34 and 35. It has proven to be advantageous that a complete set for identifying various types of bacteria or different gene expression patterns is already available through the use of the analysis kit and that the components do not have to be purchased individually and coordinated with one another. A further advantage is that it can quickly detect germs associated with periodontitis, in particular periodontitis, and therefore the consequential costs of a primarily untargeted antibiotic therapy can be prevented.

- the infected host organism can be detected by proving the origin or the source from which viruses originate, for example. This is particularly important when identifying virus strains that affect different host organisms. By immobilizing a binding partner that makes a phylogenetic distinction, e.g. Complementary sequences to the Cytrom B gene, or by immobilizing cytochrome B corresponding antibodies, the different host organisms are detected. Both for the analysis and for the further procedure, it can be decisive from which source this virus was isolated in order to be able to take immediate measures, for example to prevent the pathogen from spreading further.

- Specific binding partners for contamination can also be immobilized on the carrier.
- a specific binding partner for, for example, highly infectious viruses By applying a specific binding partner for, for example, highly infectious viruses, the presence of these viruses in the sample, which also contains the analyte, can be detected, and medical personnel are therefore warned in good time of potential infection options after receiving the result of the analysis.
- the immobilization of a specific binding partner for the isolation control makes it possible to determine the amount of analyte that was lost during the isolation.
- the amount lost through the isolation work can be determined. It is important that the added substance is very similar to the analyte in its behavior in order to obtain a representative statement.
- DNAse is free.
- a specific binding partner is arranged on the carrier 1, which binds a normalization of the intensity of the signal, which is indicated by markings, such as by enzymatic marking, silver coloring or marking with gold particles, by fluorescence or chemiluminescent color substances, biotin, digoxigenin, radioactive labels, etc., are allowed.
- markings such as by enzymatic marking, silver coloring or marking with gold particles, by fluorescence or chemiluminescent color substances, biotin, digoxigenin, radioactive labels, etc.
- gold particles are applied to carrier 1 in a defined amount, which then serve as a crystallization point, analogous to the detection system, where, for example, the primer is via a biotin Streptavidin system is labeled with the gold particles.
