Q

hybridisation probe

A

a fragment of DNA/RNA of variable length which is used in DNA/RNA samples to detect sequences that are complementary to the sequence in the probe
it is part of the microorganism genome cleaved by restriction endonucleases, cDNA, synthetic oligonucleotides and RNA probes
can either be radioactive or non-radioactive

Q

established cell line

A

permanent cell sub-cultured 70 times at intervals of 3 days between subculture

17
Q

active immunisation

A

can be natural after recovery from an infective disease or artificial active immunisation - vaccine which is the application of an antigen to develop active specific immunity in an immunocompetent organism for the purpose of production of antibodies
this is the most effective method of the infective disease control
normally we use inactivated vaccines and living vaccines
