Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotyping of genomic DNA extracted from formaldehyde-fixed specimens is cumbersome: there is not only a low yield or failure of PCR amplification (presumably due to degradation of DNA in the formaldehyde-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue), but the standard method also in...
