The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a molecular method that is employed for in vitro amplification of a specific region in a strand of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Multiplex PCR involves the ...

GeneFisher—fishing for genes, perhaps? Fishing genes out of genomes? Just fishing? The subtitle, Interactive PCR Primer Design, “hooked me” (get it?) but it shouldn’t have in retrospect. After all, ...

Designing reproducible PCR assays involves optimizing multiple moving targets, from standardizing each component in sometimes minute reaction volumes to planning ahead to ensure long-term and secure ...

First described in the 1990s, digital PCR is a novel approach to PCR which allows precise detection and quantification of the amount of nucleic acids formed during PCR. It is different from ...

Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CODX) ("Co-Dx" or "the Company"), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, patented ...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and rapid (antigen) tests for COVID-19 both involve taking a swab. Results for a PCR test take longer, as it needs to go to a laboratory. It is more costly but tends to ...

The claim: PCR creator Kary Mullis said the tests can detect 'anything in anybody' and can't tell you if you're sick Biochemist and PCR test creator Kary Mullis died in 2019, months before the ...
