Abstract excerpt
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an important metabolizing enzyme involved in oxidative stress responses to some environmental carcinogens including benzene, a chemical associated with bone marrow toxicity and leukemia. A novel multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique based on adapter-ligation mediated allele-specific amplification (ALM-ASA) is simple, inexpensive and especially useful for multiplex single...
