METHOD AND KIT FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF VACCINIUM MYRTILLUS

摘要

The invention provides a method for the identification of Vaccinium myrtillus in a botanical composition and a kit specifically designed for its implementation. The method of invention is based on the detection, using PCR amplification, of nucleic acid fragments within a genomic region of Vaccinium myrtillus, namely the genomic region within the internal transcribed spacer 1, 5.8S ribosomal RNA genomic region and the internal transcribed spacer 2.
