## Abstract Highโthroughput genetic studies often require large quantities of DNA for a variety of analyses. Developing and assessing a wholeโgenome amplification method is thus important, especially with the current desire for largeโscale genotyping in previously collected samples for which limite
Amplification of DNA from whole blood collected on Guthrie card filter paper presents considerable technical obstacles due to the presence of natural PCR inhibitors (protein, heavy metals, heme, and heme degradation products) and low copy number of genomic material. For this purpose we evaluated gua
