Abstract excerpt
Hearing loss (HL) is a common genetically heterogeneous sensory disorder, occurring in 1 to 3 per 1000 live births. In spite of the extraordinary genetic heterogeneity, variants in GJB2, MT-RNR1, and SLC26A4 genes have been considered as the main reasons of nonsyndromic hearing loss in Chinese population. We developed a rapid multiplex genetic screening system called the SNPscan assay technique which could detect...
