Determination of twin zygosity using a commercially available STR analysis of 15 unlinked loci and the gender-determining marker amelogenin – a preliminary report

13 Jun 2006

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The aim of this preliminary study was to estimate the accuracy of the zygosity determination in twin pregnancies. METHODS: Seventy-three sets of twin pregnancies were enrolled in this study, including 48 sets of twins resulting from assisted reproductive techniques (ART) and 25 sets of spontaneously conceived twins. Determination of zygosity was made by PCR-amplified short tandem repeat (STR) analysis...
