What is PCR?

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a molecular biology technique used to amplify a single copy or a few copies of a DNA segment across several orders of magnitude, generating thousands to millions of copies of a particular DNA sequence. It is widely used in various applications, including DNA cloning, medical diagnostics, forensics, and genetic research, allowing scientists to study and manipulate specific DNA sequences.
