“…First, in terms of the detection reagent, the multiplex HRM method requires only a single common primer pair for target mutation site testing without the need for a fluorescent probe. Moreover, a number of studies have indicated that EvaGreen dye is sensitive, reliable, and cost-effective ( 17 , 31 , 32 ), which is why EvaGreen was used in this study. Second, with respect to experimental design, the multiplex HRM method confers great flexibility and a low-cost alternative for analyzing viral genomes with high mutation rates.…”
