 | 18.3 The starting template and primers for paper PCR. The colored paper strips are not shown.
|
 | 18.4 Paper PCR: primers are hybridized to the denatured template strands.
|
 | 18.5 Paper PCR: products of the first round of DNA synthesis. Note that the primers are part of the product DNA strands. The base sequences of the product strands have been written on the paper strips.
|
 | 18.6 Paper PCR: hybridization for the second round of DNA synthesis. It does not matter that the letters on some of the strands are upside down.
|
 | 18.7 Paper PCR: products of the second round of DNA synthesis.
|
 | 18.8 Paper PCR: products of the third round of DNA synthesis. These products include the first molecules of what will be the major product of many rounds of synthesis: the short products extending exactly from one primer sequence to the other. These molecules are the third one down the left-hand column and the second one down the right-hand column.
