Despite its utility, PCR’s main limitation is that it requires precise cycles of heating and cooling to amplify DNA. The thermal cyclers that perform this operation are clunky, relatively expensive, ...

A team of researchers from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine has developed a new method for target DNA sequence amplification, testing and analysis. This new technique, or ...

Designing reproducible PCR assays involves optimizing multiple moving targets, from standardizing each component in sometimes minute reaction volumes to planning ahead to ensure long-term and secure ...

When carrying out conventional PCR workflows users have to specify how many amplification cycles they need according to input quantity and assay type. This rigid structure is particularly difficult ...

Today, PCR is ubiquitous in molecular biology laboratories. As one of the first experiments that young scientists master, it is easy to take for granted. But developing this research lab staple ...

Limited sample material and insufficient DNA input pose significant challenges for downstream analysis in various laboratory settings. To overcome this issue, isothermal amplification techniques have ...

Isothermal amplification methods streamline nucleic acid amplification without the need for thermal cycling. Join us to explore two innovative techniques, Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA) ...
