The need for examinations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on drug metabolizing enzymes is accelerating. Especially, SNPs of UTG1A1 and CYP2C19 are important for patients who are treated with irinotecan and proton pump inhibitors, respectively. Thus, a method for the rapid, fully automated, and accurate measurement of these SNPs is desired. We genotyped 109 Japanese volunteers for UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28,...
