PCR Steps and Reaction Setup

Description

PCR uses thermocycling to make many copies of DNA. Thermocycling means repeating cycles of temperature changes at fixed time intervals. With a thermostable DNA polymerase and DNA building blocks called dNTPs, the reaction can produce numerous copies from a small DNA sample.

The PCR cycle has thre...

Transcript

La reacción en cadena polimerasa o PCR es un método ampliamente usado para amplificar fragmentos de ADN. PCR utiliza termociclaje rápido, que es el repetido calentamiento y enfriamiento de la reacción a través de tres temperaturas distintas, llamada desnaturalización, recocido y extensión o alargamiento.
