Polymerase Chain reaction is method of amplifying specific sequences of DNA. It is a method that popular used in the field of medicine due to sensitivity, specificity and how quickly it yields result.

Mechanisms of PCR

Three main steps of PCR:

  • DNA is denatured at a temperature of 90 degrees celsius. The double stranded helical DNA is seperated into two separated strands
