The use of hydrolysis and hairpin probes in real-time PCR

The use of hydrolysis and hairpin probes in real-time PCR
The use of hydrolysis and hairpin probes in real-time PCR

In this review we discuss the limitations of traditional PCR methods and introduce real-time PCR, a fluorescence-based detection system, as a method that overcomes these limitations. We describe the technologies involved in real-time PCR including the design of hydrolysis and hairpin probes and the practical applications of such systems.

Abstract

In this review we discuss the limitations of traditional PCR methods and introduce real-time PCR, a fluorescence-based detection system, as a method that overcomes these limitations. We describe the technologies involved in real-time PCR including the design of hydrolysis and hairpin probes and the practical applications of such systems.
