Abstract
Amplification of DNA templates from whole blood with Taq DNA polymerase remains a difficult task worldwide. Using a real-time PCR setup and a buffer supplemented with 1Â M 1,2-propanediol, 0.2Â M trehalose, and SYBR green I we show a reliable technique for genotyping in mice and detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms/mutations in humans. Elimination of DNA extraction and use of the common Taq DNA polymerase and DNA dye bring about substantial savings in labor and cost.
