Features of the pre-analytical stage in quantitative determination of TREC/KREC in peripheral blood
The use of dried blood spots (DBS) obtained from the heels of infants has many advantages over the collection of whole blood samples. DNA extracted from DBS can be used to detect genetic diseases by PCR, which has contributed to the development of ...
