Abstract
There is provided a base sequence analysis method including a nucleic acid amplification procedure of obtaining an amplification product by a nucleic acid amplification reaction, a turbidity measurement procedure of measuring turbidity of a reaction solution of the nucleic acid amplification reaction, and a melting curve analysis procedure of performing melting curve analysis of a probe nucleic acid chain and the amplification product at a reaction site of the nucleic acid amplification reaction.
Claims8
A base sequence analysis apparatus comprising:
- a light source configured to output irradiation light on a reaction site;
- a detection unit configured to detect light produced from a nucleic acid amplification reaction solution in the reaction site by the irradiation light;
- a temperature adjustment unit configured to heat or cool the reaction site;
- and
- a control unit configured to switch a drive mode of the light source based on a signal input from the detection unit,
- wherein the control unit is configured to switch the drive mode from a nucleic acid amplification reaction mode to a melting curve analysis mode.
