Is reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction quantitative or qualitative?
Certainly rt-PCR is qualitative and can also theoretically be quantitative. Anneal the RNA to get a 1:1 RNA to DNA copy, then proceed with quantitative PCR.
Why is PCR called a chain reaction?
PCR can repeatedly duplicate a DNA (or RNA) fragment, so it's a chain reaction. After each cycle, PCR can repeat and repeat again to produce many copies of the same DNA segment.
What is pcr and types of pcr?
PCR is a biotechnological method to amplify your gene (DNA) of your interest. It produce millions of your DNA fragments hence used in cloning. There are variants of this method using the same thermocycling principle such as touch down PCR, gradient PCR, RFLP, multiplex PCR, Q PCR, RT PCR and so on.
Which is used to copy DNA for DNA fingerprinting?
PCR
Why is DMSO used in PCR?
reduce secondary structure
What is the defference between Real-time PCR and reverse transcriptase PCR?
Difference between real time PCR and reverse transcription PCR is as follows:- 1. Real time PCR is donated as qPCR and on the other hand reverse transcription PCR is denoted as RT-PCR. 2. In qPCR, the template used is single strand DNA strand whereas in the RT-PCR, the template used in process is single strand of RNA. 3. The real time PCR enables both quantification as well as detection of the DNA in the real time whereas the RT-PCR enables only the quantification of the RNA and it is little bit slower process then the qPCR as it first produce the cDNA from the template RNA strand and then process it in the similar fashion as the traditional PCR.

What is the working principal behind RT PCR?
Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), is a variant of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) commonly used in molecular biology to detect RNA expression. RT-PCR is used to qualitatively detect gene expression through creation of complementary DNA (cDNA) transcripts from RNA.Even though both techniques, RT-PCR and PCR, produce multiple copies of a particular DNA through amplification, the applications of the two techniques are fundamentally different. The most common PCR technique is used to exponentially amplify target DNA sequences. Meanwhile, RT-PCR is used to clone expressed genes by reverse transcribing the RNA of interest into its DNA complement through the use of reverse transcriptase enzymes. Subsequently, the newly synthesized cDNA by RT-PCR is amplified using traditional PCR technique.Usually, RT-PCR is often confused with real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) by students and researchers alike, but they are quite separate and distinct techniques.
1)Human immunodeficiencyvirus contains an RNA as its genetic material.Between standard PCR and RT PCR techniques, which one would you employ to amplify a desired gene from this RNA virus.Explain how you would monitor disease progression and therapy?
RT PCR Test is the most accurate test while pcr test or rapid test can get you results very quickly, the results may not always be accurate.

What is synthesized by RNA polymerase?
Polymerases are the enzymes that replicate and build nucleic acids. DNA polymerases synthesize DNA, RNA polymerases synthesize RNA. Purified polymerases are essential to carrying out the PCR reaction.
The function of cdna?
hi In vitro we must converted the RNA to cDNA to diagnosis viral RNA in PCR. In vivo RNa viral infected the cell RNA converted to cDNA IN SIDE THE CELL BY REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE therfore cDNA insertion in the DNA of cell infected thank you hi In vitro we must converted the RNA to cDNA to diagnosis viral RNA in PCR.

What is the function of primer in PCR?
it synthesizes a single RNA primer at the 5' end of the leading end.

What reagents do you use in pcr?
in pcr technique we take original dna first heat it to separate to strands in thermocycler then add rna primer after the formation of about 10 sequences on both parental strands add dna polymerase to construct further
What is the purpose of the mineral oil used for PCR when the termocycler does not have a hot lid?
To prevent evaporation of PCR products.
