Rapid aneuploidy analysis

Principles of QF-PCR

QF PCR analysis includes amplification, detection and analysis of chromosome-specific DNA sequences known as genetic markers or small tandem repeats (STRs).

Rapid aneuploidy analysis

STR markers

A short tandem repeat (STR or microsatellite) is a pattern of two or more nucleotides that are repeated directly adjacent to each other.
