Abstract

Pooling design is an important research topic in bio- informatics due to its wide applications in molecular biology, especially DNA library screening. In this paper, with unitary spaces over finite fields, we present two new constructions whose efficiency ratio, i.e., the ratio between the number of tests and the number of items, is smaller than some of existing construction.
