Rapid detection of MDR–Mycobacterium tuberculosis using modified PCR-SSCP from clinical Specimens [PDF]
Objective: To design a rapid test to detect the rifampin (RIF) and isoniazid (INH) resistant mutant based on polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) technique that analyzes the katG, rpoB genes.

Paternal imprinting of the
Background Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic chromosomal modification in the gametes or zygotes that results in a non-random monoallelic expression of specific autosomal genes depending upon their parent of origin.

Identification of parasitic nematodes by PCR-SSCP of ITS-2 rDNA
Fourteen species of parasitic nematodes (order Strongylida) were characterized using a polymerase chain reaction-linked single strand conformation polymorphism technique (PCR-SSCP). The rDNA region spanning the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) was amplified from parasite DNA by PCR.

Single nucleotide polymorphism rs7908486 of the TCF7L2 gene is highly associated with obesity in the Iraqi population [PDF]
This study was conducted to assess the possible association between polymorphisms of the transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) gene and obese Iraqi adults. DNA was obtained from 158 obese subjects and 142 controls.

Detection and isolation of nuclear haplotypes by PCR‐SSCP [PDF]
SSCP (single‐strand conformational polymorphism) is used widely in the field of human biomedicine, but its potential as a population genetics tool for the recovery of nuclear gene genealogies remains to be realized. We describe and illustrate a use for SSCP in the physical isolation of nuclear haplotypes that circumvents several difficulties associated

PCR–SSCP: A Method for the Molecular Analysis of Genetic Diseases [PDF]
Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) is a reproducible, rapid and quite simple method for the detection of deletions/insertions/rearrangements in polymerase chain reaction amplified DNA. All the details for the use of PCR-SSCP are presented in the direction of genetic diseases (beta-thalassaemia, cystic fibrosis), optimum gel conditions ...
