Abstract excerpt
The use of DNA microarrays for genotyping is economically favorable when compared to real-time PCR and DNA sequencing. Here, we demonstrate a DNA microarray-based assay using allele-specific oligonucleotide (ASO) probes for genotyping mutations in the beta-globin gene. The assay makes use of agarose film coated glass slides as substrate, unmodified melting temperature matched ASO probes, target amplification and...
