Abstract excerpt
We describe the application of a new DNA-scanning method, which has been termed Cleavase Fragment Length Polymorphism (CFLP; Third Wave Technologies, Inc., Madison, Wis.), for the determination of the genotype of hepatitis C virus (HCV). CFLP analysis results in the generation of structural finge...
