Nucleotide sequence exclusion enrichment by droplet sorting (needls)

摘要

The present invention pertains to an in vitro method in which a targeted DNA molecule containing a DNA sequence of interest is enriched by a) general amplification of DNA molecules in a multiple of droplets each containing less than 0.5 target DNA molecule on average (404), b) specific detection of the target DNA molecule in each of the droplets (405), and c) physically selecting droplets containing target DNA molecules (406).
