Here we describe a simplified method for direct breakage of the emulsion using the DNA binding buffer (containing guanidine hydrochloride and isopropanol) that is provided with commonly used silica ...

DNA has emerged as an attractive medium for archival data storage due to its durability and high information density. Scalable parallel random access to information is a desirable property of any ...

The Roche/454 GS FLX System is based on emulsion PCR [8] and pyrophosphate detection [9] techniques. A library of DNA templates is constructed by a highly efficient DNA amplification method known as ...

Roche said today it granted a worldwide license for its portfolio of emulsion PCR (emPCR) patents to Sysmex Inostics, a molecular diagnostics provider that has been using the technology in several of ...

Not quite 30 years old, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the workhorse of many biology labs. While the basic premise—the amplification of DNA samples of interest—has remained constant, creative ...

Microbiota profiling methods are greatly enhancing our insights into the microbial diversity and taxonomy of many different types of environments and ecosystems, including the relationship between ...
