Background: Two mutations in HFE, G845A (amino acid substitution C282Y) and C187G (H63D), are associated with hereditary hemochromatosis. We developed and validated a novel method, linked linear amplification (LLA), for detection of these two mutations.

Methods: Two segments of HFE were amplified by a multiplex LLA reaction that generated biotinylated LLA products.
