Background: Tests for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) based on reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) are being used to “rule out” infection among high-risk persons, such as exposed inpatients and health ...

Primer-BLAST: A tool to design target-specific primers for polymerase chain reaction
Choosing appropriate primers is probably the single most important factor affecting the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Specific amplification of the intended target requires that primers do not have matches to other targets in certain orientations and ...

On joint maximum-likelihood estimation of PCR efficiency and initial amount of target [PDF]
We consider the problem of estimating unknown parameters of the real-time polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) from noisy observations. The joint ML estimator of the RT-PCR efficiency and the initial number of DNA target molecules is derived.

Detection of Brucella canis in blood, urine and seminal fluid of a naturally infected dog by PCR
A brucelose canina é uma doença bacteriana, infectocontagiosa que acomete cães de todo o mundo.O diagnóstico laboratorial é baseado em métodos diretos e indiretos e deve ser realizado quando há evidências de sinais clínicos e epidemiológicos.

Semi-quantitative digital analysis of polymerase chain reactionelectrophoresis gel: Potential applications in low-income veterinary laboratories [PDF]
Aim: The interpretation of conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay results is often limited to either positive or negative (non-detectable). The more robust quantitative PCR (qPCR) method is mostly reserved for quantitation studies and not a ...

Computing by polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
A mathematical notation is introduced to represent, at a symbolic level, different mechanisms of DNA recombination, and a 'PCR lemma' is proven by analytically describing the combinatorial properties of the polymerase chain reaction process. This approach led to the discovery of novel techniques, based on a form of PCR which we called cross pairing PCR
