Researchers hope to eventually develop a simple method for detecting early mutations in the polyposis gene.
A genetic test is also available to detect mutations in the MEFV gene.
A technique for detecting mutations in myostatin variants has been developed.
Genotyping assays, which detect mutations in the viral genes.
Identifying a gene mutation may not be possible given the limited sensitivity of the laboratory techniques used to detect mutations.
Massively Parallel Sequencing is a newer method that can be used to detect mutations.
Here, the ability to detect heterozygous mutations is important and this can only be done if the sequence of the diploid genome is obtained.
The type of test in most common use is the genotype test, which detects mutations in the viral genetic code.
Diasorin hired him in 1988 to direct a laboratory the company had created to detect new mutations and variants of known microbes.
