High-resolution melt (HRM) analysis can discriminate nucleotide sequence differences among samples by comparing the differing DNA melting behavior of different sample compositions. HRM offers a cost-effective, yet accurate alternative to probe-based genotyping assays and DNA sequencing (1).

DNA melting (dissociation) analysis is widely used for the characterization of DNA amplification products, typically using SYBR® Green I fluorescent dye1,. High Resolution Melt (HRM™) is a recent enhancement to traditional melting analyses that significantly increases the detail and information that can be captured.
