In a recently published ‘Letter to the Editor’ in the journal Microbiology Spectrum, scientists have described the procedure of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based genotyping in identifying ...

In a recent study published in Lancet Microbe, researchers compare the potential of real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) genotyping assays with whole-genome sequencing ...

Like many researchers who had to run hundreds of Southern blots, I felt immediate relief the first time I used PCR for genotyping. It was no longer going to take seven days to see results, and I would ...

In recent years, the rise of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has unlocked new dimensions in variant detection. However; single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping often remains dependent on ...

Discover the similarities and differences between whole-genome sequencing (WGS), whole-exome sequencing (WES) and SNP genotyping for precision medicine applications. From the pros and cons to their ...
