PCR

# CBR-Constant bit rate: a Peak Cell Rate ( PCR ) is specified, which is constant.

Other Cetus scientists, including Randall Saiki and Henry Erlich, were placed on PCR projects to work on developing HIV-and other tests utilizing PCR.

# VBR-Variable bit rate: an average or Sustainable Cell Rate ( SCR ) is specified, which can peak at a certain level, a PCR, for a maximum interval before being problematic.

Alternatively, diagnosis and strain identification can be made using polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ).

CBR traffic will normally be policed to a PCR and CDVt alone, whereas VBR traffic will normally be policed using a dual leaky bucket controller to a PCR and CDVt and an SCR and Maximum Burst Size ( MBS ).

Nucleic acid amplification tests ( NAAT ), such as polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ), transcription mediated amplification ( TMA ), and the DNA strand displacement amplification ( SDA ) now are the mainstays.

PCR is, in fact, one of the classic examples of teamwork.

In addition to microarrays biochips have been designed for two-dimensional electrophoresis, transcriptome analysis, and PCR amplification.

However, other scientists have written that " the full potential PCR was not realized " until Mullis ' work in 1983, and that Mullis ' colleagues failed to see the potential of the technique when he presented it to them.

This may be done by using doped nucleotides in oligonucleotides synthesis, or conducting a PCR reaction in conditions that enhance misincorporation of nucleotide, thereby generating mutants.

The PCR products are then digested using RFLP enzymes and the resulting patterns visualized using a DNA sequencer.

The improvements made by Mullis allowed PCR to become a central technique in biochemistry and molecular biology, described by The New York Times as " highly original and significant, virtually dividing biology into the two epochs of before P. C. R.

The anthropologist Paul Rabinow wrote a book on the history of the PCR method in 1996 ( entitled Making PCR ) in which he discussed whether or not Mullis " invented " PCR or " merely " came up with the concept of it.

If the first step is positive, a second test, a PCR assay targeting the toxin genes, is performed.

Point mutation in the primer annealing sites in such species may lead to the occurrence of ‘ null alleles ’, where microsatellites fail to amplify in PCR assays.

The DNA of interest may be a plasmid insert, a PCR product or a fragment representing a gap when sequencing a genome.

PCR primers are then synthesized as a mixture of primers corresponding to all permutations.

Enterohepatic species e. g., H. hepaticus, H. bilis and Helicobacter ganmani have been detected by PCR in but still not isolated from specimens of patients with hepatobiliary diseases.

The classical PCR technique can be applied only to DNA strands, but, with the help of reverse transcriptase, RNA can be transcribed into DNA, thus making PCR analysis of RNA molecules possible.

The acronym PCR may refer to:

Diagnostic and serologic laboratory testing utilizing PCR testing and viral culture of CSF to identify the specific pathogen causing the symptoms, is the only currently available means of differentiating between causes of encephalitis and meningitis.

A concept similar to that of PCR had been described before Mullis ' work.

Attempts to test Darwin's remains at the Westminster Abbey by using modern PCR techniques were met with a refusal by the Abbey's curator.

* PCR can be used to determine how many copies of a gene are present in a cell.
