PCR amplification of fewer than 1000 copies of template is hampered by synthesis of so-called primer dimers and other spurious products. These artifacts consume the stock of primers and occupy enzyme, with consequent reduction in yield of target. To overcome this problem, we have devised Booster PCR, a biphasic amplification strategy. During Stage I, primers are diluted to obtain an initial 107-fold molar excess of primer to template. At the beginning of Stage II, primer concentration is brought up to 0.1 ;,M. This procedure differs from standard PCR methods which use 0.1-1.0 #M primers from the outset. which amplification started from very human genomic In contrast to PCR 3 non-target amplified products artifacts artifacts molecular copies pg), primer dimers. copies
