Popis: | A sensitive fluorescence-based method for monitoring plasmid DNA during production was investigated. This simple method of assaying for plasmid DNA allows rapid monitoring of plasmid yields from a recombinant Escherichia coli fed-batch fermentation. The assay has several advantages over traditional methods of plasmid DNA measurement. The fluorescent dye is highly specific and can measure total plasmid DNA concentration in about 5 min. The assay is sensitive over a wide range of plasmid concentrations of between 15 and 280 ng/mL, even in the presence of impurities that occur within alkaline lysate preparations. The technique can also be applied to monitoring fermentation and downstream purification steps. |
