Herpes simplex virus(HSV) infections of the CNS are associated with significant morbidity and mortality even when appropriate antiviral therapy is administered. HSV infections of the brain can be subdivided into two categories : neonatal HSV infections, which usually are caused by HSV type 2, and herpes simplex encephalitis(HSE), which occur in patients over 3 months old and is nearly uniformly caused by HSV type 1. The clinical presentation of HSE is one of the focal encephalopathic process associated with altered levels of consciousness, fever, focal seizures and hemiparesis. But because of the lack of pathognomic clinical presentation and diagnostic procedure, the efforts to develop alternative diagnostic procedure have led to the use of new diagnostic technique such as polymerase chain reaction(PCR). We report a case of HSV type 1 encephalitis in 13 month old male infant who presented with altered level of consciousness, fever and focal seizures. With the use of the PCR, HSV-1 DNA was detected in cerebrospinal fluid from the patient. The symptoms and signs of encephalitis subsided by treatment with acyclovir in 14 days.

Nowadays, there are a lot of evidence that mutation of the p53 tumor suppressor gene is one of the most common genetic abnormalities in neoplastic progression. In this study, we analyzed 20 specimens of oral tumors(squamous cell carcinoma 14 cases, ameloblastoma 3 cases, adenoid cystic carcinoma 2 cases, malignant schwannoma 1 case)using polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing which used an automated DNA sequencer and software for detection of mutations. Polymerase chain reactions were performed with 4 sets of primers encompassing exon 5, 6, 7, 8, and direct sequencing method was employed. The results were as followings. 1. We detected 10 point mutations out of 20 specimens (50%). 2. The genetic alterations included 7 mis-sense mutations resulting in single amino acid subtitutions, 2 silent mutations, 1 non-sense mutations encoding a stop codon. 3. Mutations were mostly in exon 7(7 out of 10 mutations, 70%) and involved codons 225, 234, 235, 236, 238, 247. 4. Therse were 4 cases of $T{\rightarrow}A$ transversion, 2 cases of $C{\rightarrow}A$ transversion, $A{\rightarrow}G$ transition, 1 case of $C{\rightarrow}G$, $T{\rightarrow}G$ transversion respectively. 5. We could find out point mutations more conveniently using PCR - Automated Direct Sequencing method.

A reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) protocol was developed using two specific 22-mer primers located in coat protein gene of SPFMV. A 411 bp PCR-product was detected in virus infected plants as well as tissue culture raised sweet potato but not in healthy plants. For optimization of RT-PCR protocol, the optimum crude nucleic acid concentration, annealing temperature, primer concentration and numbers of PCR-cycle for maximum sensitivity and specificity were determined. The optimum condition for RT-PCR was as follows: RT-PCR reaction mixture was one-step mixture, containing 50 pmol of primer, 30 units of reverse transcriptase, 5 units of RNasin, and the crude nucleic acid extracts (200 ng). In RT-PCR, cDNA was synthesized at $42^{\circ}C$ for 45 min before a quick incubation on ice after pre-denaturation at $95^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The PCR reaction was carried out for 40 cycles at $96^{\circ}C$ for 30 see, $63^{\circ}C$ for 30 sec, $72^{\circ}C$ for 1 min, and finally at $72^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The viral origin of the amplified product was confirmed by sequencing, with the sequence obtained having $95-98\%$ homology with published sequence data for SPFMV. The benefits of this RT-PCR based detection of SPFMV would be simple, rapid and specific.

들메나무(Fraxinus mandshurica Rupr.) 는 우리나라에서 두가지의 서로 다른 형태(形態)가 자생(自生)하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근(最近)에 개발(開發)된 PCR기법(技法)을 이용(利用)하여 이 두 형태(形態)의 들메나무 DNA의 변이(變異)를 조사(調査)하였다. DNA 합성(合成) 효소(酵素)와 인공합성(人工合成)된 primer를 이용(利用)하여 이 수종(樹種)의 DNA를 증폭(增幅)시켜 비교(比較)한 결과(結果)이 두 형태(形態)는 DNA 비례(排列)에서 서로 다른것으로 나타났다. DNA변이(變異)는 같은 형태내(形態內)의 개체간(個體間)에도 나타나나 각 형태별(形態別)로 뚜렷하게 구분(區分)되어 형태별(形態別)로 특징적(特徵的)인 band들이 관찰(觀察)되었다. 이러한 특징적(特徵的)인 band들로 두 형태(形態)를 구분(區分)할 수 있었다.

Slipchip offers advantages such as high-throughout, low cost, and simple operation, and therefore, it is one of the technologies with the greatest potential for high-throughput, single-cell, and single-molecule analyses. Slipchip devices have achieved remarkable advances over the past decades, with its simplified molecular diagnostics gaining particular attention, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic and in various infectious diseases scenarios. Medical testing based on nucleic acid amplification in the Slipchip has become a promising alternative simple and rapid diagnostic tool in field situations. Herein, we present a comprehensive review of Slipchip device advances in molecular diagnostics, highlighting its use in digital recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Slipchip technology allows users to conduct reliable droplet transfers with high-throughput potential for single-cell and molecule analyses. This review explores the device's versatility in miniaturized and rapid molecular diagnostics. A complete Slipchip device can be operated without special equipment or skilled handling, and provides high-throughput results in minimum settings. This review focuses on recent developments and Slipchip device challenges that need to be addressed for further advancements in microfluidics technology.
