The real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) has. become the benchmark technology for the detection of nucleic acids in every area of. microbiology, biomedical research, biotechnology and in forensic applications. Unlike. conventional (legacy) PCR, which is a qualitative end-point assay, qPCR allows accurate.
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a method to analyze a short sequence of DNA (or RNA) even in samples containing only minute quantities of DNA or RNA. PCR is used to reproduce (amplify) selected sections of DNA or RNA. Previously, amplification of DNA involved cloning the segments of interest into vectors for expression in bacteria, and took weeks. But now, with PCR done in test tubes, it takes only a few hours.
