Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Single-molecule real-time technology (SMRT) is a sequencing technology using the DNA polymerases and fluorescently tagged nucleotides to accurately sequence DNA strands. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the detection accuracy of SMRT for identification of the Hong Kongαα (HKαα) thalassemia allele. METHODS: We conducted a blinded study of 33 samples of known HKαα alleles. These alleles were...
