Abstract
The present invention provides a computer method and apparatus for detecting mutations in DNA fragments. Specifically, percent acetonitrile and threshold temperature, for use in the denaturing high performance liquid chromatography method of separating DNA fragments, are determined. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention serves as a preprocessor to the DHPLC system described in the cited art.
