Popis: |
Higuchi et al. (1992, 1993) pioneered the analysis of PCR kinetics by constructing a system that detects PCR products as they accumulate. This “real-time” system includes the intercalator ethidium bromide in each amplification reaction, an adapted thermal cycler to irradiate the samples with ultraviolet light, and detection of the resulting fluorescence with a computer-controlled cooled CCD camera. Amplification produces increasing amounts of double-stranded DNA, which binds ethidium bromide, resulting in an increase in fluorescence. By plotting the increase in fluorescence versus cycle number, the system produces amplification plots that provide a more complete picture of the PCR process than assaying product accumulation after a fixed number of cycles. |
