Efficiency of DNA replication in the polymerase chain reaction
Open accessAbstract
A detailed quantitative kinetic model for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is developed, which allows us to predict the probability of replication of a DNA molecule in terms of the physical parameters involved in the system. The important issue of the determination of the number of PCR cycles during which this probability can be considered to be a constant is solved within the framework of the model. New phenomena of multimodality and scaling behavior in the distribution of the number of molecules after a given number of PCR cycles are presented. The relevance of the model for quantitative PCR is discussed, and a novel quantitative PCR technique is proposed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
