Abstract excerpt
Homogeneous assays based on real-time fluorescence monitoring during PCR are relevant alternatives for large-scale genotyping of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). We compared the performance of the homogeneous TaqMan 5'-nuclease assay and the Molecular Beacon assay using three SNPs in the human estrogen receptor gene as targets. When analyzing a panel of 90 DNA samples, both assays yielded a comparable...
