ProblemSolvingSection:

(1)Noorfewproductsdetected: Wereallcomponentsadded?; Wasthetemplatedenatured?; Aretheprimersannealingandformingprimerdimers?; Arethecyclingparameterscorrect,i.e.lowenoughforannealingandextension?

(2)Non-specificproductamplification: Aretheprimersspecificforthegeneofinterest?; Wastoomuchpolymeraseadded?; Shouldtheannealingand/orextensiontemperaturesbeincreased?; HastheMg

++ionconcentrationbeentitered?Reducingitmayhelp.

Reduceannealing/extensiontimes,and/ordecreasethenumberofcycles.

Wasanon-templateDNAnegativecontrolrun?

(3)Primer-dimerformation: Arethe3'endsoftheprimerscomplementary?; Increasetheratiooftemplatetoprimers.; Reducethenumberofcycles.; Increasetheannealingtemperature.

(4)PoorrestrictionenzymedigestsofPCRproducts: ThepHofthePCRbufferat37°Cistypicallybetween8.3-8.8,andmaybehigherthanthepHoptimumformostrestrictionenzymes.PromegaadvisestokeepthePCRsolutionbelow50%ofthedigestvolume.
