This test is effective 10 days after potential infection, and anytime thereafter (HIV-1 DNA, by PCR) as compared to the alternative HIV test (HIV ELISA) which requires a six-month waiting period to be effective.

Archaeal Richmond Mine acidophilic nanoorganisms

These novel groups of archaea named ARMAN-1, ARMAN-2 (Candidatus Micrarchaeum acidiphilum ARMAN-2 ), and ARMAN-3 were missed by previous PCR-based surveys of the mine community because the ARMANs have several mismatches with commonly used PCR primers for 16S rRNA genes.

Biosearch Technologies

When Kary Mullis received the Nobel Prize in 1993 and gave his Nobel Lecture concerning his invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, he gratefully acknowledged Biosearch and Dr. Cook's role in providing him one of the first SAM I DNA synthesizers which was used in support of Kary Mullis' PCR research.

Candidatus Liberibacter

Detection of the liberibacters is based on PCR amplification of their 16S rRNA gene with specific primers.

In 1995, a collaboration with the U.S. National Institutes of Health began, which resulted in genomic technologies for implementing Digital polymerase chain reactions (Digital PCR) and the US Patent family beginning with 6,143,496 (1997).

DNA sequencing

Emulsion PCR is used in the methods developed by Marguilis et al. (commercialized by 454 Life Sciences), Shendure and Porreca et al. (also known as "Polony sequencing") and SOLiD sequencing, (developed by Agencourt, later Applied Biosystems, now Life Technologies).

This offering enables a single solution for managing clinical study data, treatment groups data, subject data, sample data and assay data from diverse assays such as Immunohistochemistry, Western Blot, PCR, etc.

XM PCR

When combined with a "smart cable", which is really just a USB to Serial cable and a wiring adapter to connect to the XM Direct's control port, the XM Direct supports some features not found on the original PCR.
