NetPrimer is a gratis web-based tool used for analysing primers used in PCR to amplify a DNA sequence. [2] The software predicts the melting temperature of the primers using the nearest neighbor thermodynamic algorithm. The accurate prediction of the melting temperature (Tm) is one of the most important factors that governs the success of a PCR ...
The first alkaline lysis was performed by Birnom and Doly in 1979. [1] Since then, slight modifications have been made to the procedure to get to today's most widely used approach. The steps of alkaline lysis can be summarized as the formation of a pellet, resuspension of the pellet in solution, cell lysis, neutralization, and centrifugation.
A lysis buffer is a buffer solution used for the purpose of breaking open cells for use in molecular biology experiments that analyze the labile macromolecules of the cells (e.g. western blot for protein, or for DNA extraction).
TE buffer is also known as T 10 E 1 buffer, which can be read as "T ten E one buffer". To make a 100 ml solution of T 10 E 1 buffer, 1 ml of 1 M Tris base (pH 10–11) and 0.2 ml EDTA (0.5 M) are mixed and made up with double distilled water up to 100ml.
In summary, in order to find a standard curve, one must use varying concentrations of BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) [2] in order to create a standard curve with concentration plotted on the x-axis and absorbance plotted on the y-axis. Only a narrow concentration of BSA is used (2-10 ug/mL) in order to create an accurate standard curve. [23]
Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) is a method of dPCR in which a 20 microliter sample reaction including assay primers and either Taqman probes or an intercalating dye, is divided into ~20,000 nanoliter-sized oil droplets through a water-oil emulsion technique, thermocycled to endpoint in a 96-well PCR plate, and fluorescence amplitude read for all ...
The Oxford Chemistry Primers are a series of short texts providing accounts of a range of essential topics in chemistry and chemical engineering written for undergraduate study. The first primer Organic Synthesis: The Roles of Boron and Silicon was published by Oxford University Press in 1991. [ 1 ]
Polymerase chain reaction itself is the process used to amplify DNA samples, via a temperature-mediated DNA polymerase.The products can be used for sequencing or analysis, and this process is a key part of many genetics research laboratories, along with uses in DNA fingerprinting for forensics and other human genetic cases.
