Figure 1 Fig. 1. Mixing experiments demonstrating the sensitivity of the SNP assay used in (2). The values shown indicate the ratio of NOD to B6 DNA mixed in one tube. Results are shown for the PCR assay specific for SNP rs4151928; the NOD versus B6 allele is detected as FAM or VIC fluorescence, respectively. Ratios of 97:3 are detectable at 600 pg of mixed DNA. Similar results were observed for the other two SNPs used in (2). [View Larger Version of this Image (17K GIF file)]
