SELECTIVE AMPLIFICATION OF DESIRED NUCLEIC ACID AREAS IN A TARGET SEQUENCE

摘要

A method and kit for selective amplification of desired amplicons in a two-stage polymerase chain reaction is provided. The method and kit uses target primers comprising mismatch control sequences; wherein any pair of primers that flank a desired amplicon sequence have non-matching mismatch control sequences. and any pair of primers that flank an undesired amplicon sequence have matching mismatch control sequences.
