Abstract excerpt
Cystic fibrosis (CF) nonrelated patients (N = 24) from São Paulo State, Brazil, were screened for the presence of the delta F 508 mutation by PCR amplification of the deletion region with the primers C16B (5'GTTTTCCTGGATTATGCCTGGGCAC3') and C16D (5'GTTGGCATGCTTTGATGACGCTTC 3'), and by acrylamide gel electrophoresis.
