PCR with Pfu polymerase
Short explanation:
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a method for exponentially amplifying a fragment of DNA in vitro.
Equipment:
- Micropipettes with sterile tips
- PCR machine
- PCR tubes
Chemicals & consumables: 50 µL batch
- 18 µL Pfu Mastermix 9:25
- 100 ng = 1 µL DNA template
- 1 µL Forward primer (10 µM)
- 1 µL Reverse primer (10 µM)
- up to 50 µL ddH2O
Procedure:
