Study of Working Processes in DNA Amplifier for Increasing the Yield of Polymerase Chain Reaction Product
Results of studies aimed at increasing the efficiency of DNA amplifiers in the process of polymerase chain reaction are given. There were two lines of the conducted work: studying the thermal processes in the thermal unit of a DNA amplifier, including thermal processes in a microvolume of the reaction mixture, and modeling the optical system operation numerically. Studies of thermal processes are directed to increasing the yield of the polymerase chain reaction product, while the optical system study is aimed at improving the sensitivity of the optical system of result detection.
