Temperature-tolerant COLD-PCR reduces temperature stringency and enables robust mutation enrichment.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Low-level mutations in clinical tumor samples often reside below mutation detection limits, thus leading to false negatives that may impact clinical diagnosis and patient management. COLD-PCR (coamplification at lower denaturation temperature PCR) is a technology that magnifies unknown mutations during PCR, thus enabling downstream mutation detection. However, a practical difficulty in applying...
