The present invention relates to a method for detecting of a mutant DNA using a probe, comprising: (1) contacting a sample containing a single-stranded DNA which has a substituted nucleotide, a deleted nucleotide region, or an inserted nucleotide region (mutant-type DNA), or/and a wild-type single-stranded DNA (wild-type DNA) corresponding thereto with the probe which hybridizes with both single-stranded DNA, to form a hybrid with the mutant-type DNA (mutant-type hybrid) or/and a hybrid with a wild-type DNA (wild-type hybrid), wherein at least one of the obtained mutant-type hybrid and wild-type hybrid has the stem structure; (2) separating the obtained mutant-type hybrid or/and wild-type hybrid by electrophoresis on the basis of presence or absence of the stem structure or difference in the stem structure; and (3) detecting the presence or absence of the mutant-type DNA in the sample.

A lithium isotope concentration device includes a treatment tank partitioned in a supply tank and a recovery tank by an electrolyte membrane having a lithium-ion conductivity. The electrolyte membrane is cooled by a cooling device via an Li-containing aqueous solution in the supply tank to have a low temperature at which the Li isotope separation coefficient is larger. A power supply device, connected between electrodes provided on opposite surfaces of the electrolyte membrane, applies a positive voltage to an electrode on a supply tank side.

Methods and systems for the separation of hydrogen isotopes from one another are described. Methods include utilization of a hydrogen isotope selective separation membrane that includes a hydrogen isotope selective layer (e.g., graphene) and a hydrogen ion conductive supporting layer. An electronic driving force encourages passage of isotopes selectively across the membrane at an elevated separation temperature to enrich the product in a selected hydrogen isotope.

The invention relates to isotope separation methods, and methods for separating isotopes with low energy consumption, demonstrated using hydrogen isotopes. Also described are methods for enriching or depleting the isotope present in the hydrogen gas/vapour feed e.g. for tritium removal, tritium enrichment and deuterium enrichment, by arranging a series of cells in a cascaded configuration.
