Popis: | BACKGROUND:DriedrootofSophoraflavescensAit.isamedicinalmaterialoccasionallymisusedoradulteratedbyotherspecies similar in appearance. In this study the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of DNA samples of S. flavescens Ait. collected from different areas of Taiwan were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and compared. The effectiveness of using ITS2 PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)-generated markers to differentiate S. flavescens Ait. from possible adulterants was also evaluated. RESULTS: The S.flavescens Ait. samples collected from different areas were extremely low in ITS sequence variability at species level. ITS2 PCR-RFLP coupled with restriction enzymes Sac I, Sac II, Xho Io rPvu I produced specific fragments for all tested variants. ITS2 PCR-RFLP coupled with Sac II was further performed to identify mixtures of DNA extracts of S.flavescens Ait. and Sophoratomentosa L. in various ratios. The developed ITS2 PCR-RFLP markers could detect mixed DNA samples of S.flavescens Ait./S.tomentosa L. up to a ratio of 10:1. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrates the usefulness of ITS2 PCR-RFLP coupled with pre-selected restriction enzymes forpracticalandaccurateauthenticationofS.flavescensAit.ThetechniqueisalsosuitableforanalysingS.flavescensAit.mixed with other adulterants. c � 2011 Society of Chemical Industry |
