BIOMARKER FOR THE EVALUATION OF NICKEL TOXICITY BY USING CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS

摘要

PURPOSE: A biomarker is provided to accurately and sensitively detect exposure by nickel and to identify effect of nickel on health. CONSTITUTION: A biomarker for detecting exposure by nickel contains a gene(GenBank registration number B0285, R08F11, or F10D11). The biomarker additionally contains one or more genes selected from the group consisting of genes(GenBank registration numbers F28C6, Y18D10A, F54D1, C52B11, C27F2, AV187138, F37B1, Y106G6H, CEK033F5R, H09F14, 3047202, F23A7, F10E7, CEC9093, C48490, CEK098F6R, E03G2, VW02B12L, R01H10, and T02E1).
