Abstract

We adapted the protocol of measuring cell-free DNA (cfDNA) level in plasma for application in clinical practice. This protocol is based on sorption extraction of DNA followed by measuring its concentration with a Qubit fluorometer. We explored the analytical parameters of this procedure. The regional reference limit of the cfDNA level in plasma of healthy volunteers was 14,7 ng/ml to 104,7 ng/ml.

Keywords

cell-free DNA.
