The choice of primers controls which DNA is amplified in PCR.

Chelex is there to simply denature the Double stranded DNA and convert it to single strand DNA so the primers can attatch to it during PCR.
We use this principe when the annealing temperature of the two primers (reverse and forward) is different
Primerdimer occur, when the Primer are -or parts- are complementary (3' of the FOR- and 3' of the REV-Primer). While PCR both oligos hybridizate and are elongated. The Product contains both primer sequences. Primerdimers reduce the avaiable ammount of primers for the pcr-reaction. Therefore the pcr effectivity is reduced because of this non-specific reaction.

It is a special type of PCR amplification, that contains the normal external primer for PCR and 2 extra primers specific for each different base of a SNP.
Chelex is there to simply denature the Double stranded DNA and convert it to single strand DNA so the primers can attatch to it during PCR.
Reactants: (dNTPs, template DNA (to be amplified), primers(bind to DNA to begin elongation of strand), DNA Polymerase (elongate DNA), & MgCl2) in buffer + H2O
Templates, reverse and forward primers, and nucleotides
We use this principe when the annealing temperature of the two primers (reverse and forward) is different
In the process of PCR, copying segments of DNA whereby millions of copies of DNA can be generated from just a small sample. The process involves the use of primers, which are short strands of DNA generally about 15-30 nucleotides long. Two primers are used in each PCR reaction, and they are designed so that they flank the target region of interest (region that should be copied).
1.) Melt the two strands of DNA. ~95 C2.) Anneal primers onto the DNA. ~55 C3.) Extend the primers. ~70 C
Universal primers are really not 'universal' in the sense that they will bind to anything. Universal is kind of a misnomer. Really, universal primers are PCR/sequencing primers that bind to a sequence found in many plasmid cloning vectors, most of which are derived from pUC vectors (which in turn come from pBR322). These sequences were defined as good PCR and sequencing sites as they flank the multiple cloning site where an inserted DNA sequence would be put. You can now buy these universal primers from various companies. You can see that these primers are called universal because they can be used to amplify or sequence any insert that is put in the multiple cloning site.

Primer3 is a program that's used for designing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers. PRC is an essential tool in genetics and molecular biology. Primer3 has many parameters that allow the user to control the primers for the goals they're trying to meet.
