What is PCR?
Polymerase Chain Reaction is an in vitro technique for the amplification of a specific sequence of DNA Which is used for further testing.

Components of the reaction mixture
Template DNA.
Primers (forward and reverse)
dNTPs
Taq DNA Polymerase
Buffer solution
Divalent cations
Sterile deionized water

Template DNA
It contains the DNA region to be amplified
Range - 1-2 µl ( for a total reaction mixture of 10 µl)

dNTPsDe oxy nucleotide triphosphate (dATP, dGTP, dTTP, dCTP)
They are the building blocks from which the DNA polymerases synthesizes a new DNA strand.
• Range - 0.5 µl (for 10µl reaction mixture)

DNA STRUCTURE
• DNA molecules are polymers called polynucleotides.
• Each polynucleotide is made of monomers called nucleotides.
• Each nucleotide consists of :
• a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine or Guanine)
• a pentose sugar (DNA = Deoxyribose sugar),
• and a phosphate group.
