Abstract excerpt
Polymorphic microsatellite markers are widely used in gene discovery and mapping, human identification, agricultural genetics, and diagnosis of triplet-repeat expansion disorders. Reliable genotyping of these markers requires polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and very-high-resolution electrophoresis. Capillary array electrophoresis offers extremely fast, high-resolution separation of DNA and more...
