Abstract

Recently, progress in molecular biology is being made in the fields of science, medicine, and pharmacy. Therefore, the majority of students graduating from pharmaceutical university departments will be required to have knowledge of molecular biology techniques. However, it is difficult to include such experiments in the curriculum for students at general high schools and universities because of safety concerns, the expensive materials and experimental equipment and time consumed. Therefore, this report introduces the convenient experimental materials on human DNA polymorphism for the genotyping of the earwax type gene ABCC11 on the chromosome 16 using a PCR-RFLP method. This experiment enables each student to handle DNA safely. The total time required for the experiments is less than 4 hours. The PCR-RFLP experiment proposed here is a suitable genotyping method to acquire molecular biological knowledge and techniques.
