Abstract excerpt
We have developed a rapid and efficient genotyping method for detection of the mouse leptin obese mutation (Lep(ob)) using tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (tetra-primer ARMS-PCR). In this method, whole blood collected onto gamma-ray sterilized Flinders Technology Associates (FTA) filter paper is used as PCR template without a DNA purification step. Three genotypes...
