PCR, or Polymerase Chain Reaction, is a revolutionary molecular biology technique that allows for the rapid amplification of specific DNA sequences. It is an essential tool in various fields, ...

Real-time PCR or quantitative PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is an advancement of the standard PCR technique, which enables continuous monitoring of the reaction and collection of data in real time.

First developed in 1992, immuno-PCR combines an ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) with PCR (polymerase chain reaction) to offer a significant increase in sensitivity compared with traditional ...

Engineers have developed a new method for duplicating DNA that makes devices small enough to hold in your hand that are capable of identifying infectious agents before symptoms appear. Imagine a "DNA ...

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is generally considered one of the most significant biomedical advances of the 20th century and a fundamentally integral part of every molecular biology laboratory ...

In fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, it's not just the vaccines that require complicated cold supply chains and refrigerated storage. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests -- often considered the "gold ...

Expert Rev Mol Diagn. 2013;13(8):789-792. Trachoma is a potentially blinding disease which exists at endemic or hyper-endemic levels in many developing countries. There is an ongoing effort to ...

Imagine a "DNA photocopier" small enough to hold in your hand that could identify the bacteria or virus causing an infection even before the symptoms appear. This possibility is raised by a ...
