Abstract excerpt
We have developed a simple rapid DNA screening test that allows us simultaneously to analyze seven CF mutations (delta F508, R347P, S549N, G551D, R553X, R334W, 444delA) that together account for about 60% of all CF mutations in the Italian population. It consists of three steps: multiplex polymer...
