Abstract: (2184 Views)
We interested in a very nice article by Motovali-Bashi at al entitled as “Multiplex PCR based screening formicro/partial deletions in the AZF region of Y-chromosome in severe oligozoospermic and azoospermic infertile men inIran” (1). In this article, authors described the frequency of Y chromosome AZF microdeletions increased in subjectswith severe spermatogenic failure and partial deletions of AZFc associated with spermatogenic failure. However, infigure 2 of the paper, sY1291 and sY1201 STS-PCR products on agarose gel were presented erroneously. This mistakedoes not match with the legend of figure 2. sY1201 and sY1291 PCR product sizes are 677 bp and 527 bp, respectively.According to STS-PCR product sizes, sY1201 should be corrected on the top PCR product band on the description ofagarose gel. We would like to bring forward this mistake for your attention and for a possible correction.
