Under certain conditions, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used to differentially amplify one allele over another. To characterize the phenomenon, we have made a series of PCR primers and determined whether differential amplification could be detected after agarose gel electrophoresis. Two all

The polymerase chain reaction, and other methods for rapidly amplifying DNA or RNA are versatile tools that can be used in diverse applications that include HLA typing, analyzing the T-cell repertoire, constructing chimaeric antibodies and quantifying cytokine expression. The sensitivity of the poly
We describe a novel method for the detection of human rhinoviruses in clinical samples, using the polymerase chain reaction. Two synthetic oligonucleotide primers were produced that bind in the 5' noncoding region of all rhinovirus serotypes tested, about 350 nucleotides apart, and were used to prim
