| Abstract |
The here described method of isothermal whole genome amplification (iWGA) uses a Phi29 DNA polymerase-based kit (Illustra GenomiPhi V2 DNA Amplification Kit) that amplifies minute quantities of DNA by multiple strand displacement upon random hexamer primer binding. Starting from genomic DNA or single cells this amplification yields up to 5 μg of iWGA product with fragment lengths of 10 kb and longer. As this amplification lacks the need of fragmenting DNA, its products are well suited for many downstream applications (e.g. sequencing and DNA profiling). On the contrary, degraded DNA samples are not supported by the nature of the amplification and are not well suited. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 June 2016.
All research outputs
#17,773,420
of 22,828,180 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#7,236
of 13,125 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#241,885
of 353,128 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#431
of 997 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,828,180 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,125 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 353,128 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 997 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
