Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in human blood is currently investigated as a minimally invasive, highly informative biomarker. Here, we aimed to investigate the existence of the shorter cfDNA fragments in the blood. Using an improved cfDNA purification protocol and a 3′-end-labeling method, we found DNA fragments of approximately 50 nucleotides in human plasma, present at a molar concentration comparable...
