Isothermal Nucleic Acid Amplification Techniques and Their Use in Bioanalysis. [PDF]
Recently, there has been a rapid progress in the development of techniques for isothermal amplification of nucleic acids as an alternative to polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The advantage of these methods is that the nucleic acids amplification can be carried out at constant temperature, unlike PCR, which requires cyclic temperature changes. Moreover,
