Genetic polymorphisms can be detected using various molecular techniques. These include:
1. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), which amplifies specific DNA regions for analysis. 2. DNA Sequencing, which provides detailed information about the DNA sequence and any variations. 3. Microarray Analysis, which can screen for multiple polymorphisms simultaneously. 4. Real-Time PCR and TaqMan Assays, which are used for rapid and specific detection of known polymorphisms.
