Abstract excerpt
The multiplex DNA typing test kit, PM plus DQA1 relies on 36 different oligonucleotides that all must hybridize correctly for accurate DNA typing. The G + C contents of the probe oligonucleotides range from 47% to 83%. Since G + C content directly affects optimal hybridization temperatures, a wide range of optimal hybridization temperatures is expected. This was verified by two empirically tested formulas. The...
