Abstract excerpt
A rapid DNA-based assay is essential for clinical diagnosis and mass screening in thalassemia-prevention programs. Because of high homology and guanine-cytosine-rich and complex second structure of α-globin genes, it is rather difficult to develop a feasible and simple method for α-thalassemia genotyping. In this study, a strategy of nested asymmetric PCR melting curve analysis was designed to tackle these...
