Researchers performing PCR on microbial colonies or animal tissue samples often forgo quality for speed, as PCR inhibitors found in crude samples cause failed reactions. Additionally, scientists working with plants typically sacrifice yield to obtain pure nucleic acid samples. By learning how to avoid PCR inhibitors, researchers can perfect their PCRs, no matter the sample type or application.
