description

The single base extension-tag array (SBE-Tag Array) method is carried out on glass slides and combines the specificity of minisequencing for SNP typing with the high throughput capacity of microarrays. Following multiplex PCR, a single tube SBE reaction is carried out, and the fluorescent labelled extension products are hybridized to the complementary DNA sequence tag (cTag) immobilized on a glass slide for locus-specific laser scan analysis. The aim is to prove and optimise the conventional microarray reaction on accuracy and efficiency for forensic applications. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
