1. A high throughput method of determining frequencies of genetic variations, comprising:
- selecting a healthy target population and a genetic variation to be assessed;
pooling a plurality of samples of biopolymers obtained from members of the population;
determining or detecting the biopolymer that comprises the variation by mass spectrometry;
obtaining a mass spectrum or a digital representation thereof; and
determining the frequency of the variation in the population.
