The invention discloses a method and a
reagent for detecting the transgenic maize strain VCO-01981-5. The detection method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: adding
mineral oil to a PCR
reaction system, carrying out uniform mixing, transferring the mixture to a droplet generator for generating droplets, carrying out PCR reaction, after the reaction, reading an amplification
signal of each droplet, and calculating the target
DNA molecule number of a to-be-detected sample by adopting QuantaSoft
software, wherein the PCR
reaction system comprises strain VCO-01981-5 and HMG
gene specific primers and probes, and the two probes are subjected to FAM and HEM
fluorescence labeling. According to the
quantitative determination method provided by the invention, the endogenous
gene HMG and strain
specific primers and probes matched for use are designed, by adopting a double-channel method, the molecule numbers of the endogenous
gene HMG and the strain VCO-01981-5 in a maize gene group are quantified, the absolute content of the transgenic maize strain VCO-01981-5 is calculated, and thus the detection method has great significance for the research for the transgenic ingredients and the transgenic detection at the ports of china.
