Module 2: Polymerase Chain Reaction

PCR enables researchers to produce millions of copies of a specific DNA sequence in a short amount of time. This automated process bypasses the need to use bacteria for amplifying DNA. In this Curriculum Module, you will find a variety of kits to teach the PCR technique.

Curriculum Module Includes:
• Curriculum guide
• PCR Amplification of DNA
• VNTR Human DNA Typing Using PCR
• Drosophila Genotyping Using PCR
• I.D. of Genetically Modified Foods Using PCR
