Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To establish a method with high efficiency in detecting phenylalanine hydroxylase (PHA) gene mutations and hence to rapidly diagnose prenatal fetals with phenylketonuria. METHODS: Dideoxy fingerprinting (ddF) was used. It is a hybrid method of dideoxy sequencing and single strand confo...
