Single-stranded nucleic acid adsorption inhibitor, nucleic acid solution, and nucleic acid amplification method

Abstract

The invention provides a single-stranded nucleic acid adsorption inhibitor containing one or more polymers selected from (1) a copolymer containing a constitutional unit (a) derived from 2-(meth)acryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, and a constitutional unit (b) derived from C2-C6 alkyl (meth)acrylate having two or more hydroxy groups as substituents; (2) a copolymer containing the constitutional unit (a), and a constitutional unit (c) derived from polyethylene glycol (meth)acrylate; and (3) a copolymer containing the constitutional unit (a), and a constitutional unit (d) derived from C1-C6 alkyl (meth)acrylate having a phenyl group or a phenoxy group as a substituent. The invention also provides a nucleic acid solution comprising the single-stranded nucleic acid adsorption inhibitor, as well as a method for amplifying a nucleic acid by comprising using the nucleic acid solution.
