Abstract

The analysis of deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) by mass spectrometry (MS) has evolved to where it can be used to analyze most known types of DNA and ribose nucleic acid (RNA) situations. It can efficiently deal with the analysis of DNA polymorphisms, sequences, haplotypes, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing, DNA methylation and RNA expression. Implementations of MS for these forms of DNA analyses are reviewed. The use of DNA analysis by MS is compared with competing technologies. Finally, an overview is given of worthwhile applications where the know‐how gained so far could be used for future developments. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A sensitive method using gas chromatography and negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry for the detection of uracil in DNA is described. Uracil DNA glycosylase is used to specifically cleave uracil from DNA. Once removed, uracil is derivatized with 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide and t
