摘要

Determining degree of contamination and/or pollution of an environmental medium and/or a living organism in an environmental medium, comprises measuring expression level of at least two genes coding multidrug resistance (MDR) protein in a biological sample obtained from living organism in the environmental medium, determining the ratio between the expression level of two genes, optionally comparing the expression level of the two genes with a reference value, and detecting the degree of contamination and/or pollution.
