Abstract:
INTRODUCTIONSaliva may be a viable alternative to blood as a source for DNA, and has the advantage that it is collected noninvasively. This protocol describes the Oragene procedure for DNA extraction from 2-mL saliva samples. It yields high-quality DNA suitable for research and diagnostic applications.
