NEET Solved Paper 2014 Question 36

Question: An analysis of chromosomal DNA using the Southern hybridisation technique does not use [AIPMT 2014]

Options:

A) electrophoresis

B) blotting

C) autoradiography

D) PCR

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

  • Southern hybridisation is a technique used in molecular biology for detection of a specific DNA sequence in DNA samples in which excepting PCR we use all three methods such as electrophoresis, blotting and autoradiography. Because PCR is the method used for the amplification of DNA sample. In vitro clonal propagation is characterised by PCR and RAPD.
