A staple in many laboratories around the globe, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has come a long way from its humble roots 30 years ago. While it used to take hours to amplify DNA, advanced technologies have made it possible to achieve more accurate copies in a fraction of the time, no matter which of the several PCR-based methods you use.
As PCR is essential for a variety of key applications, including prenatal genetic disorder diagnosis, forensic analysis, genetically modified crop identification, sequencing, foodborne pathogen detection, and genealogy testing, to name a few, it is more important than ever to be up to date on the latest technology and techniques for fast, reliable PCR results.
