title: Use of degenerate oligonucleotide primed PCR (DOP-PCR) for the genotyping of low-concentration DNA samples.
abstract: Degenerate oligonucleotide primed amplification (DOP-PCR) is an efficient method for performing whole genome amplification. We analysed the yield of DNA using this technique starting with various quantities of material. We used DOP-PCR products to genotype single nucleotide polymorphisms and insertion/deletion polymorphisms. DOP-PCR also proved usable for SSCP analysis.
