The Power of PCR

PCR Informatics

PCR, or Polymerase Chain Reaction, is a fundamental laboratory technique for biology and biomedical research. We offer several different labs that utilize real DNA and PCR equipment and range anywhere from 75 minutes to 3 hours of instruction time. We will work with you to determine which PCR lab best aligns with your current curriculum.

Objectives
  • Understand the applications of PCR.
  • Understand the process of PCR.
