- Purification and concentration of PCR products leads to increased signal intensities with fewer allelic drop-outs and artifacts
Forlagets udgivne version, 325 KB, PDF-dokument
Capillary electrophoresis of amplified DNA isolated from trace evidence samples occasionally results in inadequate STR-profiles due to artifacts caused by e.g. primers and dNTPs. Removal of artifacts by purification and subsequent concentration of the PCR products may increase the sensitivity and the quality of the DNA profiles without re-amplification of the sample. We have validated and implemented an automated method to purify and 2-fold concentrate PCR products resulting in allelic peaks with higher intensity (a median height across all loci from 130 to 404 RFU), fewer allelic dropouts and a reduced number of artifacts compared to both an increase in injection time and increase in the number of amplification cycles.
