Abstract excerpt
The use of universal heteroduplex generators (UHG) as an effective means of screening for specific mutations has been previously reported. Here, we report the optimisation of a UHG system used for the rapid and simple detection of sickle cell hemoglobinopathies, HbS and HbC. The test involves heteroduplex formation between between polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified beta-globin gene first exon sequences,...
