Abstract excerpt
We describe a novel assay for detection of point mutations. The method combines the specificity and sensitivity of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and allele-specific oligonucleotides (ASO) with highly sensitive time-resolved fluorometry. ASO probes differing by a single base substitution and...
