    Biotech report: In the 1980s, chemist Kary Mullis of Cetus Corporation invented PCR.


    PCR method competition

    The principle of PCR is needless to say here


    End-point PCR

    End-point PCR is the most primitive and simple PCR method, and it is still widely used by us today


    qPCR and dPCR

    Researchers have overcome the challenges of PCR quantitative analysis in two ways: real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) and digital PCR (dPCR)


    SYBR® Green is an intercalating DNA dye widely used in qPCR


    Although both qPCR and dPCR can quantify nucleic acids in a sample, they have an important difference


    dPCR is generally more accurate
