V. Cormierdaire et al., NONRADIOACTIVE SINGLE-STRAND CONFORMATION POLYMORPHISM (SSCP) ANALYSIS OF EXON-11 OF THE CFTR GENE USING THE PHARMACIA PHASTSYSTEM, Pathologie et biologie, 41(8), 1993, pp. 713-715
The authors report here the use of the PhastSystem (Pharmacia) to perf
orm the single strand conformation polymorphism analysis of polymerase
chain reaction products of the exon 11 of the CFTR gene. It provides
a rapid (2 hours) safe and reliable technique for the development of c
arrier testing for individuals or couples with a family history of cys
tic fibrosis.
