What is a Hot-Start PCR?
“Hot start PCR is a modification of conventional PCR in which limiting one of the reagents until the heating step reduces the chances of non-specific amplification.” Non-specific binding or non-specific […]
Multiplex PCR- Principle, Process, Protocol, Advantages, Limitations and Applications

ARMS or Allele-Specific PCR- Principle, Procedure, Protocol, Applications and Limitations
“A method used to detect a single base change or SNP using sequence-specific primers is referred to as ARMS or Allele-specific PCR.” The PCR technique can detect mutations like deletion,
What is Immuno-PCR or IPCR?
Immuno PCR/IPCR/qIPCR is a “combination of the efficiency of RT-PCR and specificity of the ELISA method”. As the name suggests the method is a combination of immunology and genetics. The
Plant DNA Extraction using CTAB Buffer
“Plant DNA extraction needs a CTAB DNA extraction buffer that contains ingredients that can effectively remove polysaccharides and polyphenols. Let’s see how it works and how to optimize the CTAB
