when the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. this is not a problem for hcm2000 method. but optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

objective: alpha-thalassemia is one of the most prevalent hemoglobin disorders in the world and it is a common hereditary condition caused by deletion of one or more α-globin genes. common α-thalassemia deletions like 3.7 kb, 4.2 kb, 20.5 kb and med can be detected by multiplex pcr. there are, however, some unknown deletions that can not be detected by the mentioned method or even by direct dna...
