Open array was performed using the TaqMan® assay (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), and genotypes were captured using the OpenArray® NT Genotyping system (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Non-template control (process control) was used in each plate assay. DNA samples (50 ng/µl each sample) and TaqMan® OpenArray Master mix (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) were mixed in a 384 well plate and transferred to the OpenArray plate using an autoloader. The OpenArray plate was subsequently filled with immersion fluid, and sealed with glue. Multiplex TaqMan® assay reactions were performed in a Dual Flat Block GeneAmp PCR system 9700 (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The PCR cycling conditions were as follows: Initial denaturation at 93˚C for 10 min; followed by 50 cycles at 95˚C for 45 sec, 94˚C for 13 sec and 53˚C for 14 sec; and a final step at 25˚C for 2 min. Samples were stored at 4˚C until further use (11 (link),12 (link)).
