Experience with an AATI fragment analyzer for SSR analysis?

19 November 2018 1 6K Report

Hi everybody,

I am just wondering - would anybody care to share their experience with using an AATI fragment analyzer for microsatellites (especially the binucleotide type)? Did you achieve the advertized 2 bp resolution (with which kit)? Are you worried to "miss" alles varying by only 2 (or 3, if trinucs) bp? From you experience, would you recommend it to replace, say an ABI CEQ 8000 capillary sequencer?

Best regards,

Klaus

Dear Muhammad,

thank you for your answer. But, there seems to be a misunderstanding here. You said that you used a fragment analyzer for SSR analysis. But, the paper you cite is not using that method (nor are you mentioned as an author). Has there been some mix-up?

Best wishes,

Klaus
