Development of a high-resolution melting method for mutation detection in familial hypercholesterolaemia patients.

AIMS: Current screening methods, such as single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) and denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (dHPLC) that are used for detecting mutations in familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) subjects are time consuming, costly and only 80-90% sensitive.
