The real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), also called quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) or kinetic polymerase chain reaction (kPCR), is a technique used to simultaneously quantify and amplify a DNA molecule. It is used to determine whether a specific DNA sequence is present in the sample; and if it is present, the number of copies in the sample. It is the real-t...

Cet article décrit la réalisation et mise en oeuvre du thermocycleur d’une puce PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) par des étudiants ingénieurs de niveau M1/M2 à ESIEE Paris. Les réalisent salle blanche un prototype PCR. Ils mettent une électronique commande pour assurer les cycles chauffage/refroidissement nécessaire duplication brins d’ADN. Le procédé micro-fabrication puces inclut deux étapes p...

Abstract Transgenic plants expressing immunoglobulin (Ig) M Fc-fused Prostate acid phosphatase (PAP) antigenic proteins (PAP-IgM FcK) and J-chain were generated by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The Fc region was tagged with the ER retention motif (KDEL) to make PAP-IgM FcK. Two transgenic crossed together generate F 1 both FcK × J-chain). PCR RT-PCR analyses confirmed transgene inserti...
