Abstract:
On 40 subjects of unspecified gender, PCR technique application for identifying DYZ1 gen to determine Y chromosome was performed in 38 subjects (95%). The results were conformed with PCR to identify TDF and the caryotype of the control group using PCR for detecting DYZ gen in determining Y chromosome. The accuracy reached 100% with no pseudonegative or pseudopositive results. The rest 5% (2 subjects) had not Y chromosome definitely. A case of TDF on X chromosome was detected affirmatively, as a first case in Vietnam.
