MAKING PCR
(Polymerase Chain Reaction)

What is the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)? It is the supreme biotechnological invention.

"PCR has transformed molecular biology through vastly extending the capacity to identify, manipulate and reproduce DNA. It makes abundant what was once scarce -- the genetic material required for experimentations."

Paul Rabinow
Making PCR, A Story of Biotechnology, University of Chicago Press, 1996
