insecticide resistance by amplification refractory mutation system assay

Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBI_0002719

An insecticide resistance by monitoring known mutations assay that detects any mutation involving single base changes or small deletions using amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS). The ARMS is based on the use of sequence-specific PCR primers that allow amplification of test DNA only when the target allele is contained within the sample. Following an ARMS reaction the presence or absence of a PCR product is diagnostic for the presence or absence of the target allele. It can be used to analyze human genomic DNA for one or more mutations.
