GENOTYPING BY PCR

Genotyping By PCRSequence-specific target amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the method of choice for analyzing small numbers of SNPs, short or long VNTRs, and short or long indels. This technique employs a combination of PCR amplification and restriction enzyme digests. Amplicon analysis is then performed on an agarose gel or with the Advanced Analytical Technologies (AAT) Fragment Analyzer™ platform. Sequence targets in any organism can be detected. This strategy is an effective and efficient approach for detecting and screening gene insertions, deletions, or rearrangements in natural or artificial gene constructs.
