ASLNA, allele specific quantitative PCR using 3′-locked nucleic acid modified primers (ASLNAqPCR); NT, not tested, since ASLNAqPCR primers were designed to identify only the seven most common codon 12–13 KRAS mutations. a References [Bamford et al., 2004; Karapetis et al., 2008; Neumann et al., 2009].
