Why You Should Use PCR Master Mixes
Why You Should Use PCR Master Mixes

With polymerase chain reaction (PCR), scientists are able to harness the power of the genome. The PCR process is an essential tool in biology because it allows an ample supply of DNA segments to be generated from relatively small samples. Although PCR reactions can be finicky and unpredictable, the use of a PCR master mix

Everything You Need to Know about Taq Polymerase

Taq polymerase is one of the most ubiquitous enzymes in molecular biology. Since its discovery in 19651, Taq has become the backbone of PCR and all the downstream applications that technology enables. This powerful polymerase is the default choice for most amplification and cloning procedures, as well as diagnostic tests, marker gene DNA sequencing, and

3 Mistakes You Should Avoid In PCR Genotyping
3 Mistakes You Should Avoid In PCR Genotyping

For many reasons, genotyping has settled into our everyday lives. It provides information for our medical records, scientific research and even for antibiotic resistance. But first, what is Genotyping? Genotyping is a technology that determines an individual or animal’s genotype. Genotypes are usually small genetic differences which could cause important physical changes. For example, in
