Abstract:
To compare the efficiency of methods of DNA extraction from lungs of Pomacea canaliculataused in PCR assay, 80 P.canaliculata collected in field were divided into 8 groups and the lungs of each snail were separated from the soft body. Six methods of DNA extraction from lungs of P. canaliculata were used to extract DNA from lungs, i.e. With Qiagen, Tiangen,and Omega commercial DNA extraction kits, guanidine thiocyanate method, Chelex 100 resin method and Chelex-silica particle method. The 16S rDNA of C.canaliculata was amplified by PCR and the concentration of PCR-products relative to marker was determined in order to evaluate the efficiency of each method. It was demonstrated that each method was valid to extract DNA from lungs used in PCR assay, but the concentrations of PCR-products were different. The concentrations of PCR-products obtained by Qiangen kit, Omega kit, Chelex 100 resin method and Chelex-silica particle method were significantly higher than those of other 4 methods of DNA extraction, in which Qiangen and Omega kits were suitable for small sample size. In term of efficiency and cost, Chelex 100 method and Chelex-silica particle method were feasible for large sample scale, while the guanidine thiocyanate method was preferred due to its fast extraction and low cost, but on account of its toxicity, it is used in urgent status or in large scale of sample extraction.
