1 Breathe in deeply through your nose, expanding your abdomen and then filling your lungs with air. 2  Hold your breath for a couple of seconds. 3  Breathe out slowly through your mouth and empty your lungs completely.  Repeat for 5 to 10 minutes.
PCR is the enzymatic amplification of a specific DNA sequence in vitro9. This process uses multiple cycles of template denaturation, primer annealing, and primer elongation to amplify DNA sequences. It is an exponential process since the amplified products from each previous cycle serve as templates for the next cycle of amplification,
PCR amplifies a specific region of a DNA strand (the DNA target). Most PCR methods typically amplify DNA fragments of between 0.1 and 10 kilo base pairs (kbp), although some techniques allow for amplification of fragments up to 40 kbp in size. Digital PCR (dPCR) : used to measure the quantity of a target DNA sequence in a DNA sample. 2  The DNA sample is highly diluted so that after running many PCRs in parallel, some of them do not receive a single molecule of the target DNA. 3  The target DNA concentration is calculated using the proportion of negative outcomes.
