96 WELL PLATE OF DNA SAMPLES
Description:
ALS PANEL: WHITES FROM NORTH AMERICA,BULBAR ONSET
Aliquot Size:
5 µg each
Sex:
Males: 39 Females: 53
Brief Description:
This panel contains 5 micrograms of DNA from 92 unique and unrelated White individuals with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). These include 39 males and 53 females from North America. The age of ALS onset ranges from 40 years to 87 years. This was defined as when symptom(s) of ALS were first noted (including at least one: lower motor neuron signs (LMN) including weakness, atrophy, fasciculations; upper motor neuron (UMN) signs including spasticity, pathologic spread of reflexes, clonus, etc). Subjects represented on NDPT026 met the El Escorial criteria for definite, and were banked less than or equal to 6 years since ALS onset. A more detailed description is also available.
