Laura Bonetta reports. Real-time PCR combines the amplification of a DNA sequence with the detection of the amplified products during each reaction cycle—in other words, in real time.

PCR amplifies DNA in a three-step process ... the single strands starting at the primer to replicate the DNA. The cycle repeats and copies of the original DNA accumulate exponentially.

What is PCR? The key element of PCR is heat. Throughout the PCR process, DNA is subjected to repeated heating and cooling cycles during which important chemical reactions occur. During these ...

The mixture is then placed in an RT–PCR machine. The machine cycles through temperatures that heat and cool the mixture to trigger specific chemical reactions that create new, identical copies of the ...

The Applied Biosystems ProFlex PCR System combines the reliability and performance you’ve come to expect from Applied Biosystems thermal cyclers with the flexible configuration and control features ...

The PCR swab test - the standard diagnostic method - uses chemicals to amplify the virus's genetic material so that it can be studied. Your test sample has to go through a number of "cycles" in ...
