Vouch for: PCR enhancers

Apart from using different types of #PCR you can also play around the generic PCR cycle with some #PCRenhancers, just how you add #eggwhites in your cocktail (!)

What went wrong?

  1. Low yield of PCR products

  2. No amplification from #GCrichtemplates

  3. #Primerdimers

  4. Non-specific products

  5. Presence of #PCRinhibitors

Solutions?

TABLE: Names, roles and doses of some #PCRenhancers.

Apart from the established chemicals like #DMSO, #Betaine, #Formamide, #BSA, #Trehalose, #T4gene32protein, #Carnitine, #NP40, #TritonX100, #Tween20, #PEG, #Gelatine, #Glycerol, #TMAC, #DTT etc., certain others like #deoxyinosine, #ethyleneglycol, #glycine are also reported to enhance PCR.


Hope it helps!
