  • Title: [Studies on random amplified polymorphic DNA fingerprinting of Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis].
    Author: Liu W, Zhu J, He B, Su Y.
    Journal: Zhong Yao Cai; 2004 Mar; 27(3):164-9. PubMed ID: 15272777.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To identify Chinese traditional medicine (CTM) "Hou-pu" (Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis), its counterfeits and substitues. METHODS: Total genomic DNA samples of ten plant species were amplified by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). RESULTS: Ten samples were able to be distinguished through their amplified DNA banding patterns on the agarose gels after electrophoresis. CONCLUSION: RAPD is able to identify "Hou-pu", its counterfeits and substitutes quickly and truly, which is also quite valuable for correctly introducing plant.
