DNA Release Method
A technique using heat and Chelex to lyse cells and release DNA.
PCR Purpose
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) amplifies the TAS2R38 gene to increase the quantity of specific DNA regions.
Restriction Enzymes Function
They cut amplified TAS2R38 DNA based on specific Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in the nucleotide composition.
Gel Electrophoresis
A method used for visualizing DNA segments after treatment with restriction enzymes.
Homozygous Non-Taster
