variable number of tandem repeats การใช้

• This has now been superseded by variable numbers of tandem repeats ( VNTR ), which is technically easier to perform and allows better discrimination between strains.
• One promising technique for studying anthrax, honed by Paul Jackson of Los Alamos and Paul Keim of Northern Arizona University, is called Multiple Locus Variable Number of Tandem Repeat Analysis _ MLVA for short.
• Minisatellites and their shorter cousins, the microsatellites, together are classified as VNTR ( variable number of tandem repeats ) DNA . Confusingly, minisatellites are often referred to as VNTRs, and microsatellites are often referred to as short tandem repeats ( STRs ) or simple sequence repeats ( SSRs ).
