Abstract excerpt
Analysis of DNA variation in biological samples most frequently utilizes the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) performed on extracted genomic DNA, followed by visualization of alleles using various methodologies. Few reports have demonstrated that amplification of DNA from plasma and serum samples is possible. We have performed DNA amplification on a large set of serum samples (n = 2955). Here, we report that known...
