Abstract excerpt
We have applied an established technique, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with LightCycler technology, to a single disease with well-defined mutations. This assay produces results within only 30 min by combining PCR and fluorescence detection in one tube without electrophoretic band detection. In this study, we found 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) lithiasis in Japanese patients who were heterozygous for...
