Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A simple and practical screening method, allowing the mass detection of targeted DNA mutations, was developed by combined use of allele specific PCR (ASP) and subsequent fluorogenic intercalation to the amplicon. METHODS: Crude DNAs were extracted from dried blood spots (DBS) by a simple boil method. Highly specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification was achieved by adopting Taq DNA...
