Multi-target PCR analysis by capillary electrophoresis and laser-induced fluorescence

Wei Lu, Dai-Shu Han, Ju Yuan & Jean-Marie Andrieu

Top

Quantitative analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified HIV-1 DNA or cDNA fragments is attained using an automated system that combines capillary-gel electrophoresis (CGE) for high-efficiency separation and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) for high-sensitivity detection. This system enables the detection of PCR-amplified multiple target DNA or cDNA in the same tube by a single injection with high precision.
