摘要: Five institutional partners participated in an interlaboratory comparison of nucleic acid extraction, RNA preservation and quantitative Real-Time PCR (qPCR) based assays for biogas biocenoses derived from different grass silage digesting laboratory pilot scale fermenters. A kit format DNA extraction system on physical chemical lysis with excellent efficiency yielded highly reproducible results among the clearly outperformed a traditional CTAB/chloroform/isoamylalcohol method. Analytical purpose, sample texture, consistency upstream pretreatment steps determine modifications that should be applied to achieve maximum trade-off between extract purity recovery rate. was much more variable, destination determines method used. stabilization quaternary ammonium salts as satisfactory approach flash freezing liquid N₂. Due co-eluted impurities, spectrophotometry proved limited value qualification quantification extracts obtained kit, picoGreen® trustworthy. Absorbance at 230 nm can extremely high presence certain chaotropic guanidine salts, but guanidinium isothiocyanate does not affect (q)PCR. Absolute by qPCR requires application reliable internal standard which correct Y-intercept values are important must reported.
