We performed a comparative study of detection of micrometastases using immunohistochemistry (IHC) by anti-cytokeratin antibody and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-specific reverse-transcriptase ...
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was detected easiest when using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests in a pediatric population. Reverse transcription polymerase chain ...
Accurate and rapid diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has been instrumental in mitigating viral spread during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) ...
The rapid evolutionary dynamics of RNA viruses, driven by high mutation rates and the consequent formation of complex quasispecies populations, present a formidable obstacle to conventional molecular ...
Applied Biosystems has introduced a new master mix reagent designed to accelerate real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction). According to company, fast SYBR Green® Master Mix provides life scientists ...
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a fundamental molecular biology tool that scientists use to amplify and analyze genetic material, such as DNA and RNA. PCR involves the enzymatic amplification of ...
PCR is a technique used to amplify target DNA in a sample. It’s a well-known method that has undergone numerous modifications to enhance its capabilities. This year, it’s turning 40 years old. PCR has ...
