Fast Multiplexed Polymerase Chain Reaction for Conventional and Microfluidic Short Tandem Repeat Analysis

Abstract: The time required for short tandem repeat (STR) amplification is determined by the temperature ramp rates of the thermal cycler, the components of the reaction mix, and the properties of the reaction vessel. Multiplex amplifications in microfluidic biochip-based and conventional tube-based thermal cyclers have been demonstrated in 17.3 and 19 min, respectively. Optimized 28-cycle amplification protocols generated alleles with signal strengths above calling thresholds, heterozygous peak height ratios of greater… Show more

“…Therefore, it was a goal of this study to demonstrate to other laboratories that thermal cyclers that are commonly used in forensic DNA testing are suitable for fast PCR. Fast thermal cyclers can achieve shorter amplification times (as low as 19 min [2]) than the non-fast ones used here (43min to >1hr on the Veriti), but the need for such a short amplification may not be justified for a particular laboratory and, therefore, may not warrant such an expense.…”

“…A longer denaturation time was attempted, as suggested by Giese et al, [2] and Walsh et al, [20], as were a 3-step PCR cycle (which helped to remedy low PHR with AmpliTaq Gold) and longer annealing/extension times (which was helpful with KAPA2G), but none of these, or other potential solutions, resolved the frequently low PHR. Similar to AmpliTaq Gold Fast as well, -A was not always prevented using a 10min final extension, so 13min was utilized.…”
