Long/Complex PCR and PCR Troubleshooting
Do you have problems with PCR yield? Reach out to PCR troubleshooting experts at info@highqu.com for personalized assistance with PCR troubleshooting. Most common reasons of PCR failures can be:
If there is a non-specific amplification or PCR background:
• Ensure that the primers are designed correctly by using primer design tools.
• Adjust the primer concentration to favour specific primer annealing over non-specific binding.
• Run an annealing temperature gradient to find the optimal temperature for each new template-primer-PCR mix set. HighQu mixes “like” higher annealing temperatures.
• Reduce the template amount, and if possible, check the template DNA integrity on the agarose gel, it can be that your gDNA sample is degraded.
• If nothing helps, switch to hot-start PCR to prevent non-specific amplification during the initial stages of PCR troubleshooting.
If there is low PCR product yield or no amplification:
• In addition to told above, try to reduce template amount, especially when working with crude samples, you may have PCR inhibitory effects coming from impurities.
• Evaluate PCR cycling conditions: assess the denaturation, annealing, and extension times to ensure sufficient amplification, especially for longer targets.
