Japanese Encephalitis Virus(JEV) can be detected conveniently by the use of biotinylated cDNA probe. To prepare biotinylated probe aminoallyl dUTP was first synthesized chemically to reverse transcribe the virial RNA. The allylamine-labeled cDNA was then converted to the biotin-cDNA by the reaction with an activated biotin ester, NHS-ACA-biotin. The JEV genomic RNA was hybridized to the biotinylated cDNA probe on nitrocellulose filter and visualized colorimetrically by streptavidin complexes with alkaline phosphatase polymer. Sensitivity of the detection system was determined by estimating the amount of the JEV genomic RNA through comparison with signals generated from the biotinylated and $^{32/P}$ -labeled probes. It was found that the biotin probe was as sensitive as $^{32/P}$ -cDNA probe which can detect 50pgs of the target RNA.

DNA probe assay comprising a microwell as' solid matrix for the immobilization of streptavidin (SA) and an oligonucleotide with covalently bound fluorecein as detection probe was developed. The insolubilized SA captured the biotinylated DNA product of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the product was denatured under a basic condition. The remaining single-stranded DNA on the solid surface was hybridized with the probe for signal generation that was performed based on enzyme-linked immuno -reactions.

Molecular diagnostic techniques have been used to identify porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a causative agent of acute enteritis in swine, but they were difficult to be petformed and time-consuming. To detect PEDV in a rapid and easy way, we developed biotinylated cDNA probe for N gene encoding the nucleoproteins of PEDV. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues from 24 naturally infected pigs were used for the experiment. The ISH produced a positive reaction in all cases. When intestinal tissues were hybridized with PEDV probe, strong signals were seen in the villus enterocytes of the jejunum and ileum. Hybridization signals were also found in the duodenum from one pig and in colon from dnother. In conclusion, ISH with a biotinylated cDNA probe was provided to be a useful diagnostic method for detecting PEDV effectively in routinely processed tissue sections.

Simple stain and electron microscopic in situ hybridization is studied and applied for the identification of rabbit haemorrhagic disease viral RNA in a unicrylated preparation of the liver after innoculation of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus. Hybridization for detection of viral RNA in unicryl embedded tissues using complementary 84 bases oligonucleotide probe labelled by biotin CE-phosphoramidite compared with 4717∼4800 sequences of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus, modified hybridization protocol and antibiotin antibody-l0nm gold as signal marker. The best results were obtained in 0.02% glutaraldehyde, Unicryl resin cell block, biotinylated oligonucleotide probes, antibiotin-l0nm gold. In this report, RHD viral RNA was distributed widely within the mitochondria and nucleus of liver cell by electron microscopic in situ hybridization. In situ hybridization has become a standard method for localizing DNA or RNA sequences in tissue or celt preparation. In situ hybridization is detected the virus genome in the cells and tissue as specifically compared with others nucleic acid hybridization method.

Detection and distribution of bovine viral diarrhea virus(BVDV) was studied in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from two naturally infected cattle by in situ hybridization with a non-radioactive biotinylated probe. A 600 base pair cDNA probe from BVDV B-25 strain was used for probe. The whole procedure of ISH to diagnose was carried out within 1~2 hours in $Microprobe^{TM}$ capillary action system. The biotin-labelled probe was demonstrated after hybridization under standard conditions by the application of streptoavidin and biotinylated alkaline phosphatase. Alkaline phosphatase was visualized using a fast red TR/naphthol phosphatase and the sections were counterstained with hematoxylin. We have obtained the result of positive reactions in digestive tract(sm1.all intestine and colon) and epidermis of tongue in the state of the intact tissues. The result suggested that in situ hybridization method can be considered as a useful diagnostic technique for detection of specific nucleic acid sequences of BVDV.

The determination of DNA hybridization reaction can apply the molecular biology research, clinic diagnostics, bioengineering, environment monitoring, food science and other application area. So, the improvement of DNA detection system is very important for the determination of this hybridization reaction. In this study, we report the characterization of the probe and target oligonucleotide hybridization reaction using the evanescent field microscopy. First, we have fabricated DNA chip microarray. The particles which were immobilized oligonucleotides were arranged by the random fluidic self-assembly on the pattern chips, using hydrophobic interaction. Second, we have detected DNA hybridization reaction using evanescent field microscopy. The 5'-biotinylated probe oligonucleotides were immobilized on the surface of DNA chip microarray and the hybridization reaction with the Rhodamine conjugated target oligonucleotide was excited fluorescence generated on the evanescent field microscopy. In the foundation of this result, we could be employed as the basis of a probe olidonucleotide, capable of detecting the target oligonucleotide and monitoring it in a large analyte concentration range and various mismatching condition.

Recently various molecular diagnostic techniques have been used to identify rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), a causative agent responsible for acute hepatitis and disseminated intravascular coagulation in rabbit. But they were hard to perform and time consuming. To detect RHDV in a rapid and easy way, we developed biotinylated oligonucleotide probe within ORF 1 region encoding the polyprotein of RHDV in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues from various tissues of 20 rabbits naturally infected with RHDV, Our in situ hybridization (ISH) was quickly carried out within two hours by MicroProbe capillary action system. The ISH produced a positive reaction in liver, kidney and lung. In conclusion, ISH with a biotintlated oligonucleotide probe provided a useful diagnostic method for detecting RHDV.

In this presented study, we established a method for diagnosis of porcine epidemic diarrhea(PED) by in situ hybridization(ISH), which made distinct progress in diagnostic pathology. We also carried out the retrospective diagnosis through ISH to assume the exact time of the first outbreak and incidence of PED in Korea. The outbreak of PED in Korea reported in 1992. However, since the end of 1980's, some researches of pig-industry have already suspected the outbreak of PED, not transmissible gastroenteritis(TGE). In this experiment, we performed the ISH using 80 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues of porcine intestine which were requests for pathological diagnosis from 63 farms whose primary sign was diarrhea from 1984 to 1991. We prepared biotinylated cDNA probe(492base pairs) for ISH by nick translation method and carried out the ISH, using $Microprobe^{TM}$ capillary action system(Fisher $Biotech^R$). We detected PED virus in intestinal mucosa of 2 cases in 1992, 1 case in 1988, and 1 case in 1987. As a result, we assume that the outbreak of PED in Korea have already started since 1987.
