The invention discloses a nested PCR (
polymerase chain reaction) kit for detecting chicken-
manure pollution in a
water body and a detection method thereof, and belongs to the field of the detection of
pollution in water bodies. The nested PCR kit for detecting the chicken-
manure pollution in the
water body comprises two pairs of nested PCR primers, dNTP (
deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate), a PCR buffer, a
Taq polymerase, a Mg<2+> solution and ddH2O (double
distilled water). Two rounds of PCR amplification are used by a nested
PCR method. The detection method comprises the following steps of extracting
a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in a
water sample, and carrying out a first round of PCR amplification by using the
DNA in the
water sample as a template, wherein the primers are an SCF (
stem cell factor) and SCR (serum
creatinine); after a reaction is terminated, carrying out a second round of PCR amplification by using a product of the first round of PCR amplification as a template, wherein the primers are an NCF (neutrophil chemotactic factor) and NCR (
nitrile chloroprene rubber), and after the second round of PCR amplification is terminated, detecting the existence of a 403bp strip, which shows that the
water body is subjected to the chicken-
manure pollution, through
agarose gel electrophoresis. According to the method, the detection sensitivity is greatly increased through the nested PCR amplification; a little chicken-manure pollution which exists in water can be detected; moreover, the method has a favorable specificity, and can be directly applied to the detection and the preventive treatment work of fecal pollution in the water body.
