What is PCR?
Definition
HRP-2 is a stable soluble exported protein composed of largely histidine, alaline and
aspartic acid amino acids arranged in a variety of tandem repeats.

Blood samples from persons non-infected or mono-infected
with one of four human malarias

Cycle number
Analyze PCR products
• Check a sample by gel electrophoresis.
• Is the product the size that you
expected?
• Is there more than one band?
• Is any band the correct size?
• May need to optimize the reaction
conditions.
PCR Modifications
• Nested PCR
– increases the specificity of DNA amplification, by reducing background due to non-specific amplification of DNA. Two sets of primers
are being used in two successive PCRs.
• Multiplex PCR
– The use of multiple, unique primer sets within a single PCR mixture to produce amplicons of varying sizes specific to different DNA
sequences.
• Reverse-transcriptase PCR
– (Reverse Transcription PCR) is a method used to amplify, isolate or identify a known sequence from a cellular or tissue RNA. The
PCR is preceded by a reaction using reverse transcriptase to convert RNA to cDNA.
Polymerase Chain Reaction
Controls for PCR
• Blank reaction (Negative control reaction)
– Controls for contamination
– Contains all reagents except DNA template
