Abstract excerpt
This study examined a possible relationship between genetic variation in the gene coding for the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and increased risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) in an Austrian population. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to determine the genotypes for an insertion/...
