Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: We investigated the reliability of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) genotype analyses performed on single cells for the purposes of preimplantation genetic analysis. METHODS: We performed blind analysis of 130 single skin fibroblasts heterozygous for the delta-F508 mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene and 73 single skin fibroblasts from an individual heterozygous for the...
