Detection of Single Nucleotide Polymorphysms (SNPs) and Nucleic Acid Sequences

Organization:Yeda R&D C0. LTD @ The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel, IL
I.P. Brief:Novel, inexpensive, efficient method to detect SNPs, and locate genomic sequences (telomeres) with high fidelity. The RecA based method suits high-throughput simultaneous analysis of many SNPs, using fluorescence-tagged DNA probes. It may be used for rapid diagnose of cancers using minute quantities of DNA or RNA.
Keywords:Diagnostics, genetic disorders, cancer, SNPs,
Primary Industry:Pharma & Biotech
Specific Market:cancer diagnostics, genetic disorders
