Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The genotyping of HFE p.C282Y and p.H63D mutations is one of the most requested molecular analyses in the laboratorial routine. In this scenario, the main aim was to develop a genotyping assay that has advantages compared to other methods. METHODS: Genotypes for the HFE p.C282Y (c.G845A; rs1800562) and p.H63D (c.C187G, rs1799945) mutations were assessed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by...
