Optimization of PCR method for the polymorphic detection of beta-2 adrenergic receptor gene / Afriza Aini Mohamad Afzal

The aim of this study is to perform a one step direct PCR method in identifying polymorphisms of five alleles of interest of the beta-2 adrenoceptor gene (Arg 16/ Gly 16, -20T/C, Gln27/ Glu27, -47T/C and Thr164/ Ile164). This one step direct PCR is also expected to produce better results compared to...
