Polymerase Chain Reaction Optimization

Polymerase Chain Reaction Optimization

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a commonly used molecular biology tool for amplifying DNA, and various techniques for PCR optimization have been developed by molecular biologists to improve PCR performance and minimize failure.

Famous quotes containing the words chain and/or reaction:

    From Nature’s chain whatever link you strike,
    Tenth or ten thousandth, breaks the chain alike.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    In a land which is fully settled, most men must accept their local environment or try to change it by political means; only the exceptionally gifted or adventurous can leave to seek his fortune elsewhere. In America, on the other hand, to move on and make a fresh start somewhere else is still the normal reaction to dissatisfaction and failure.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
