<strong>PCR</strong> Molecular Mechanism<br />

• Exponential amplification of the original DNA<br />

sequence (template) <strong>to</strong> create copies of part of the<br />

sequence (amplicon)<br />

X n =X 0 (1+E) n<br />

X = DNA concentration<br />

X 0 = Starting DNA concentration<br />

X n = DNA concentration at cycle n<br />

E = Efficiency of <strong>PCR</strong> reaction, 0-1
