Abstract excerpt
Identification of mutant genes in tumor tissues and blood plasma (solid and liquid biopsy samples, respectively) is a necessity for individualized treatment of cancer patients. Here we report the use of a novel mutant-enriched PCR - quantitative DNA melting curve analysis (mePCR-qDMA) with TaqMan probes. The TaqMan probes served as blocking agents during PCR and as hybridization probes during DNA melting curve...
