PCR makes it possible to produce millions of copies of a DNA sequence in a test tube in just a few hours, even with a very small initial amount of DNA. Since its introduction, PCR has ...

Then, to perform PCR, the DNA template that contains the target is added to a tube that contains primers, free nucleotides, and an enzyme called DNA polymerase, and the mixture is placed in a PCR ...

Additionally, the assurance that these tubes are free from PCR inhibitors, UV leachables, and human DNA further enhances the reliability of experimental outcomes by preventing any potential ...

The PCR cycling reactions are carried out in an automated thermocycler, which is capable of heating and cooling the reaction tubes in a short ... for replication of DNA, detecting DNA sequences ...

This is why DNA analysis is such a big deal. Today, it is most often (but not exclusively) used together with technologies like PCR, capillary electrophoresis, and fingerprinting. Each of an ...

Forensic DNA profiling uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify short tandem repeats (STRs), which are highly variable DNA regions, typically with four repeating bases. This variability helps ...

(Applied DNA or the "Company"), a leader in PCR-based DNA technologies, today announced that Applied DNA Clinical Labs (ADCL), the Company's wholly-owned clinical laboratory subsidiary, has ...
