✦ Synopsis

In vitro DNA amplification by means of the polymerase chain reaction is currently revolutionizing human molecular genetics. Since its inception in 1985, a wide variety of different methods and their applications in the diagnosis of disease have been described. This review is intended to serve as a brief guide to current and emerging possibilities in this rapidly expanding field.
