Biotechnology Basics: Making the Polymerase Chain Reaction Easier with PCR EdvoBeads
Invented in 1983 by Kary Mullis, PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) has become indispensable in modern molecular biology research. Through a clever use of DNA polymerase Dr. Mullis discovered a method to quickly create many copies of a specific sequence of…
