Optimizing Primer Concentrations<br />
Optimizing Primer Concentrations for <strong>PCR</strong><br />
Overview<br />
The purpose of the procedure below is to determine the minimum<br />
primer concentrations giving the lowest threshold cycle (C T ) <strong>and</strong><br />
maximum ∆R n while minimizing nonspecific amplification. The<br />
reaction volumes are 50 µL. Use 10 to 100 ng of genomic DNA or 1<br />
to 10 ng of cDNA template.<br />
Use <strong>PCR</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Mix</strong> to run four replicates of each of the nine<br />
conditions shown in the table below. The master mix is described in<br />
“<strong>PCR</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Mix</strong> for Primer Optimization” on page 4-4.<br />
