Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The expansion of specific trinucleotide repeats results in certain genetic disorders. METHOD: Real-time PCR analysis was used to rapidly discriminate between normal and expanded (CAG)(n) alleles in the androgen receptor gene. RESULT: The difference in melting temperature (T(m)) betw...
