Authentication of the Chinese drug "ku-di-dan" (herba elephantopi) and its substitutes using random-primed polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Cao H,Paul Pui-Hay But,Shaw Pc +2 more
TL;DR: DNA fingerprinting and polymorphism among the Chinese drug "Ku-Di-Dan" and its substitutes were demonstrated with arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and results showed that AP- PCR and RAPD fingerprints of the commercial samples of Ku- Di-Dan are identical with that of Elephantopus scaber L.

Generation of a sequence characterized amplified region probe for authentication of crocodilian species
TL;DR: A 209-base pair crocodilian-specific sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) was identified from a 425-bp randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fragment and opens the way for quick authentication of crocodilian samples for conservation biology and trade regulation.

Chinese herbal medicine in the treatment of asthma and allergies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patent applications for using DNA technologies to authenticate medicinal herbal material.
TL;DR: An overview of some recent patents that cover the extraction of DNA from medicinal materials, the amplification of DNA using improved reaction conditions, the generation of DNA sequences and fingerprints, and the development of high-throughput authentication methods are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of FINS and multiplex PCR for detecting genuine abalone products
TL;DR: Two molecular tools are applied to authenticate abalone products and multiplex PCR with a Haliotis-specific primer was used to facilitate rapid and reliable exclusion of substitutes from abalone Products.
