3 Methods
Refer to Chapter 18 , Subheading 3.1.
- All samples are diluted with DNase-free water only.
- Prepare all PCR materials within the PCR hood to reduce
chances of contamination (see Note 1). - Thaw all PCR required ingredients on ice.
- Briefly tap and spin down each reagent to ensure homogeneity.
- Prepare a master reaction mixture (see Note 2) according to
the manufacturer’s protocol with consideration of pipetting
error (see Note 3). - A minimal of two technical replicates per sample (see Note 4)
is required. - For example, for three biological samples, eight master reac-
tion mixtures will be prepared (see Note 5). - Then for each individual reaction, aliquot a single reaction of
master reaction mixture into a PCR tube, and add the tem-
plate (see Note 6) to it.
